Surely God is With Us

The Ragamuffins


Who's that man 
Thinks He's a prophet 
I wonder if He's got something up his sleeve 
Where's He from 
Who is His Daddy 
There's rumours He even thinks himself a King 
Of a kingdom of paupers, simpletons and rogues 
The whores all seem to love Him and the drunks propose a toast 
And they say 

CHORUS: 
Surely God is with us 
Surely God is with us 
Surely God is with us today 

Who's that man 
Says He's a preacher 
He must be - He disturbing all our peace 
Where's He get off 
What is He hiding 
Every word He says those fools believe 
But who could move a mountain 
Who would love their enemy 
Who could rejoice in pain and turn the other cheek 
And still say 

CHORUS 

Blessed are the poor in spirit 
Heaven belongs to them 
Blessed are those who make peace 
They are God's children 
I am the bread of life 
I am the only way 
You hear that man 
Believe what He says 

Who's that man 
They made Him a prisoner 
They tortured Him and nailed Him to a tree 
Was He so bad 
Who did He threaten 
Did He deserve to die between two thieves 
See the scars and touch His wounds 
He's risen, flesh and bone 
Now the sinners have become the saints 
And the lost have all come home 
And they say
