What Ye Think of Christ

I want to ask you to turn in your Bibles to Matthew chapter 22. Matthew chapter 22, beginning in verse number 41. One day while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question. He said, What think ye of Christ? Whose son is he? They said unto him the son of David. Now that was good, because that meant more than just the son of David. That meant the Messiah who was to come through David. He said unto them, Let me ask you a question then. How then does David in spirit call him Lord, if he's David's son? How is it that the Lord said unto my Lord, David said, God said unto somebody, David called his Lord, Jesus. Sit here on my right hand till I make thine enemies thy footstool. If David called him Lord, how is he his son? And no man was able to answer him a word. Neither dared any man from that day forth ask him any more questions. And I don't think I would either. Jesus Christ asked them a question. A question that spoke to his divinity and his deity. Consequently, his lordship and his right to be God and to be master and controller and ruler of their lives and ours. And so tonight, I want us to hold our attention right here to these five words. What think ye of Christ? Not just of Jesus, of Christ. The word Christ means anointed one. God incarnate one. It's an important question. It's the most important question. Because what you believe about Jesus Christ is going to completely determine what you do with Jesus Christ. For if he's an imposter, he's just a religious charlatan, he doesn't deserve your allegiance. But if he is God creator, God in human flesh, then he deserves that which he requests and which he requires. He reserves the right and deserves the right to be Christ and Lord and Savior and Master of your life. The question is not what think ye of the Bible, the most beautiful and important book the world has ever seen. The question I wish to ask tonight is not what think ye of the First Baptist Church or the First Methodist Church or of Evangelistic Temple or of any other church. It's not what you think of a particular doctrine. You're not going to hell or to heaven depending on whether you believe once saved, always saved or once saved and lose your salvation or predestinarianism. that's not going to determine a thing. It's not what you think of a preacher that counts. A reporter asked me today when I thought about Billy Graham. I said I think he is the greatest evangelist that ever lived since Jesus Christ himself. Well, that question is not going to make any difference in your life and in eternity. One thing is important. What think ye of Christ? I wish that I had time tonight to consider him as teacher for no man ever taught as Jesus taught. He confounded the scribes and the authorities. The Pharisees were bewildered and they said he has a ring of authority about him and no man ever spake like this man spake. I wish we had time to consider him as a preacher. The little children understood what he said and were drawn to him and mobbed him. They loved him so. And yet the philosophers of religion and the doctors of the law were confounded by what he said. No man ever preached like Jesus preached. I wish we had time to consider him as a person. He never asked anybody's advice. He never admitted to an error. He never made a mistake. He never changed his mind. No one ever lived like Jesus. I wish we had time to consider him as a physician. He never preached the funeral sermon. For whenever he attended funerals, the dead came forth, and there was no funeral to be held. His power was so great that when he stood at the tomb of Lazarus, buried in a graveyard four days, he had to say, Lazarus, come forth, when he called him forth from the dead because his power was so great. Had he not called him by name, had he just said, come forth, the whole graveyard would have come forth. We have some of the greatest doctors in the world in Houston. Dr. DeBakey, surely one of the most famous and one of the two or three greatest doctors in the world. But did you ever hear of a doctor that never lost a case? That's Jesus, the healer. That's Jesus, the physician. I wish I had time to talk to him, to you tonight about Jesus as a mighty prophet, the great foreteller of events, as priest, pleading his own blood at this moment for those who love and trust him at the right hand of the Father, and as King and Messiah and soon coming Savior, to be ruler and boss of this world. He came the first time to die here. He's coming the second time to dictate here. He came the first time to board here. He's coming the second time to be boss here. He came the first time to be resident. He's coming the second time to be president. I wish I had time to talk to you about the reign of Christ, about Jesus as King. But that's not the question. The question is the deity of Jesus. Is he God incarnate in a human body or is he an imposter? What think ye of Christ? Whose son is he? Simply Mary's? Joseph's? An illegitimate? The son of a transient Roman soldier? Or the son of God? And it's a question that we have the right to ask because if he is an imposter, then we have every reason and right in the world to hold him in utter contempt. But he said before Abraham was, I am. He didn't say I was. That would be no past tense, would suggest dimensions of time and space. But he is the Lord of time and space and transcends time and space. So he isn't was and will be. He always am. And he said, I am the way. I am the truth. I am the father of one. They that have seen me have seen the father. If any man enter in any other way, he's a thief and a robber. I'm the door. I'm the way. I'm the truth. I'm the life. Jesus Christ claimed everything. And I've claimed and I've staked everything on him. And I have a right to know whether he is what he claims to be. I was talking to a very nice young lady today who's a reporter for a, I believe, a West Side newspaper. And that's their photographer that's taking these nice pictures tonight. And they asked me some questions and they said, let me ask you one question off the record. We have a Southern Baptist president. What do you think of it? Well, I gave him my answer, which I won't give you. And don't read anything into that. Well, let me tell you something. It makes no difference, really, what you think of Jimmy Carter. Often we're asked, what about Richard Nixon? Well, I'll tell you one thing I think. I think he's just about like all the rest of them. He just happened to get caught. But what you think about Richard Nixon or Sadat or Bagan is relatively unimportant. But the question of all questions is, what think ye of Christ? That's the most important question in the world. The reason you must answer it is because what you believe about Jesus demands certain responsibilities. If he is nothing, if he's just another preacher, just another historical religious leader, then there's no use to follow him. But if he is eternal, anointed, resurrected, living Christ, then we must listen to his claims and obey him and make him the Lord of our lives. And so tonight, as Jesus did, I'm going to ask you for the next 20 to 25 minutes to sit as you're seated in this stadium in a jury box. And I want you to be the only member of the jury. Jesus Christ is seated here. One by one, the witnesses will come to the witness stand. First, the witnesses for the prosecution, and then the witnesses for the defense. And with open minds, I want you to make your decision based on the evidence and the testimony of those witnesses. But remember, what you decide about Jesus has some strings attached and bears with it lifelong commitments to what you say you believe about him. And so I'm going to ask that we'll bow our heads and close our eyes. And let's pray before the trial begins. Our Father, in the name of Christ, we thank you for God's beautiful air conditioner that's blowing across our faces. No place in town is beautiful and as cool as what you've done here tonight. And we pray that as we take just these 10 or 15 minutes extra tonight, that the most important issue of eternity will be faced and decided in the trial of Jesus Christ in every heart. For we pray in his name. Amen. The Romans were the greatest judiciators that ever lived. Upon their legal system is built the entire court system of the United States. We're going to come tonight, as they do, to bring first of all the witnesses for the prosecution, the enemies of Jesus Christ. Call Pilate to the stand. Pilate, you're not a Jew. In fact, you have contempt for these people. There's Roman procurator, the authority of the emperor. You are placed here by Caesar to govern this rabbleless, rousing crowd of renegades who talk about allegiance to another kingdom. Recently in your community, you, as the highest official of the land, empowered by all the judiciary forces of the Roman Empire, held a trial for Jesus Christ. You investigated him fairly. You examined all of the evidence. And how did you find Jesus Christ? Pilate's answer? I find no fault in Jesus Christ. After all said and done, the only charge that the Jews nailed him on and brought before my court was he eats with publicans and sinners. And there's no crime in that. In fact, in my opinion, there is great honor. Thank you, Pilate. Thank you for your testimony. You're dismissed. Bailiff, call the next witness. We stand as a gracious lady enters the room. She is Pilate's wife. Mrs. Pilate, recently in this community, there were certain events. The night before the trial, you, a devout lady, a very religious woman, gave testimony that an angel appeared unto you, and God troubled you, and the Lord stirred your heart and spoke to you. Is it not true that you reported the incidents of that heavenly experience to your husband? It is. And what was it that seemed to trouble you? And what did those angelic voices say to you, which you whispered into the ear of your husband as you called him from the courtroom? And he came back to give his testimony of not guilty. Sir, as loudly and clearly as the voice of many waters, something troubled my soul. I could not sleep. Caused me to pace up and down in the bedchamber all through the night and said, Have nothing to do, Pilate, with this just man. Would you repeat that for the jury? Have nothing to do with this just man. And so it is your testimony, is it, that he is just, perfect, righteous, pure, innocent, and free from all fault. It is my testimony indeed. Let the record stand. Thank you, you're dismissed. Call Herod. For Jesus Christ was, as you know, tried in a trial that was erroneous in over 50 points of the Roman law. For example, there was a trial by night against the law. Tried without benefit of defense attorney without the law. Tried not once, but twice, but thrice on the same charge. First to Pilate, second to Herod, back to Pilate. And Herod, what was your testimony? Send him back to Pilate. That I find no fault in him. Then, Pilate, we call you again to the stand. And what is the verdict that shall ever stand in the annals of Roman history to this day that you find in the third trial of Jesus? It is the same, sir. It is the same. I say again, I find no fault in Jesus. But did you have not the power to try him and to condemn him to death or to release him into life? I did, sir. And you stand before this court and tell us that you found him, sir, to be innocent? I did. Then why did you condemn him to death? And I see Pilate begin to tremble and his face turns ashen and the palms of his hands begin to sweat. And he says, Because the crowd, sir, the crowd began to whisper and to jeer and to taunt. If you release him, you are not Caesar's friend. You'll never be promoted. You'll never get out of this tetrarch of Galilee. You'll be down here with these rabelous Jews all your life. You'll never be the number two man in the empire. You don't do this and you'll get no promotion. Is that not it, sir? Yes, yes, say it not again. For I cannot stand again, sir, to hear it. You are dismissed. Let the record read. The quivering, sniffling, cowardly Pilate has said, I submitted for my own personal advancement to the pressures of the crowd, but I found no fault in Jesus. Call Judas. Judas. Pilate knew him not well, though he tried him carefully. Herod saw him but for a few minutes. But you, Judas Iscariot. Judas of Cariot. The same little village where Sirhan Sirhan came from. Cariot. You, sir, you lived with him. You heard those beautiful sermons. You saw him touch the eyes of little children and heal them. You were there, were you not, when he called Thomas from the grave? I was. Tell us, sir. What is it that you are reputed to have said the night that you threw down the thirty pieces of silver at the feet of the Pharisees and went out and hanged yourselves until yourself, until your bowels burst upon the earth? What was that? Say it again. Say it for us all. We're waiting to hear, Judas. I said, sir, I have betrayed innocent blood. What was that? Say it again for the jury. The ladies and gentlemen of the jury wish to hear once more, sir. I have betrayed innocent blood. I don't believe that's right. We have the accounts. We've heard the testimony. Say it once again, sir. You're right. But I am under oath, and I must repeat my words precisely. I said exactly, I have betrayed the innocent blood. Not just any blood. The long -prophesied, long -predicted, awaited blood of the Lamb of God to take away the sin of the world. The innocent blood, and I betrayed the innocent blood. And you, the chief of traitors, give testimony to the world forever that you betrayed the innocent blood. God, I do, sir. I do, indeed. Thank you. And you're dismissed. Call the centurion to the stands. Mr. Centurion, you are a leader of a century. From whence cometh your name a hundred. Centurion, centurion, right? I am. Will you tell the ladies and gentlemen of this court precisely what is the nature of your particular field of service in the Roman army? Today, I, sir, am in charge of the executions. A paid, professional, trained man to carry out the law and the sins of death. The Roman Empire? I am. Would you tell this court about how many men have you been responsible for being the instrument of the Roman Empire to execute? A hundred and sixty? Sixty -five, perhaps? It is reputed, sir, by many witnesses that you said something when Jesus Christ died. And I want you to tell the court what it is. Well, it was a different kind of execution. You see, I've been responsible for being in attendance and carrying out the execution orders and signing the death certificate of these scores of men. And they always scream and writhe. And, oh, how they blaspheme their tormentors and swear and curse and hate them. But somehow there was love. Somehow the soft, gentle breezes began to turn. As he said, Father, forgive them. I know not. They know not what they do. Into a tornadic -like storm. And, sir, when Jesus died, the skies blackened. And the bowels of the earth began to rumble. And I, I was embarrassed before my own men. I, a professional killer. I, a trained executioner, sir. I began to weep. I began to tremble, sir. I was scared. And over here, a cemetery rumbled. Over there, the craves split. And Jesus said, It is finished! And blood trickled down the course of his body and fell from his heel and fell on the grass and said, It is finished. And the grass kissed the dust and said, It is finished. And the dust said to the trees, It is finished. And it seems, sir, on that blackened night, like no other night that I've ever experienced, that down the very quarters of heaven, there seemed to reverberate to the ends of eternity. It is finished! I am not ashamed to say before my troops and this faithful jury, Your Honor, that I fell on my knees. Yes, I did. I said it. Surely this man was the Son of God. Thank you for your testimony, Mr. Centurion, and you're dismissed. Call the next witness. We shriek in horror as the air is besmirched and befouled with the very stench and presence of hell. For we are calling to the witness stand, having noted that every creature, every man on earth who had anything to the test death to do with the death of Jesus, avowed his innocence. But we have other witnesses, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, who are not of this world, who are not even men. We call the imps of hell. We call the demons, the legions of demons. We cannot stand your presence for very long, sirs. We will give you but 15 seconds to speak once again the words that it is reputed that you have said in the presence of this lowly Nazarene carpenter. Say them again and be gone. What have we to do with thee, thou Son of the Most High God? Hast thou come to torment us before our time? Thank you. You're dismissed. See to it. Those words by the devils of hell, Madame Court Reporter, are forever ascribed in eternal holy writ. What have we to do with thee, thou Son of the Most High God? For they knew him before they were fallen angels in heaven, and know all too well that they are subscribed and servient to his lordship and authority. Call the witnesses for the defense. Gentle Mary, come, dear precious lady, thou in whose womb was formed that holy child that became the Son of God on the cross, and tell us in your own words who he is. It is recorded, sir, in Luke, for there in the Magnificat. I, knowing that he was indeed born in my womb as that seed began to stir of the Holy Spirit of God, I have said it for all time, he is my Lord and my Savior. So you too are a sinner, Mary. You too, though a holy, godly woman whom we revere, you give testimony that it was his saving blood that covered your sins as well. Oh, I do, sir. I have said it long since these centuries. He is my Lord and my Savior. And Mary, one last question. Why was it on that night of infamy when you stood by and watched your own son be murdered on the cross, you did nothing? Why was it on that night of infamy when you stood by and watched your own son be murdered on the cross, you did nothing? Why did you not, knowing Mary, that he was being crucified because he said he was divine, why did you not, knowing that he wasn't divine, that he was just a physical man, why did you not step forth and confess that and save him from the cross? Tell these people that. Oh, sir, I could not, have. For he was born of miraculous birth. And if he was not divine, who could have saved him from the cross? I could have. He was my son, the fruit of my womb, and I loved him. I could have said he's an imposter. He's not divine. Let me tell you how he was really born and saved him from the cross. But I could not do that. For I know, I alone know. For I am his mother and I knew not a man before he was conceived in my womb of the Holy Ghost. Thank you, Mary. Send in his forerunner. The earth seems to tremble as a rugged prophet of God, with whiskers and long hair, with ruddy face, clothed in camel skins and eating locusts and chomping on wild honey, and he comes in with fire in his eyes as though he would like to turn to the whole lot of us and say, Repent, for the kingdom of God is at hand. John the Baptist, you were his forerunner. You were his first cousin. You played together as children. You knew him best of all. If ever he made a mistake, you would know. For 400 years, the voice of God had been silent. There had been no prophet on earth. Zoroastrianism had gripped the world. Then all of a sudden, this Christ broke on the scene. And tell us, sir, what were your first public words about Jesus? Oh, I'll never forget. I'd not seen him since we were boys. He'd slipped into the wilderness and had grown into a man. My heart was tendered. And in that day that he came to baptize me, he burst upon the scene. You remember, I didn't want to be baptized. I didn't want him to baptize him. I want him to baptize me. But he insisted. Oh, you remember, my heart nearly burst inside of me. As I said to the crowd that stilled with an autumn hush. There he is. Behold, the Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world. Thank you, John. And let us call still another John. John, the beloved apostle. The brilliant philosopher of the New Testament. John, you were the greatest intellect to ever pick up a pen. You studied philosophy. You knew the law. You knew how to ask and reason. And you gave your life to writing some books about Jesus. Give us your testimony, sir. You noted scholar. You well -reputed author. Tell us, great philosopher. What of this Christ? This carpenter of Galilee. Will you have read my work, sir? Have you not? We call the Gospel of John. I began at talking about him. I called him the Word. L -O -G -O -S, Logos, capital W. You know, that means, that means, sir, the mind of God made tangible. The spoken reality of God in human form. I called him the Word. Only I used that name for him. Let me tell you what I said. In the beginning was the Word. And the Word was with God. And the Word was God. All things were made by him. And without him, there's not anything made that was made. And then, surely, you've read of my writings. You've called them 1st and 2nd and 3rd John. My shorter epistles. You know, but I lived in a day that Gnosticism was the prevalent philosophy. Now, the Gnostics said you cannot know God. And there's no way that God, who is a spirit, could become a man. Did you not read where I said that we did touch him physically? That he was not a spirit. He was not a ghost. He was really God in a body. Have you not read in my writings where he said, that which we have touched and seen and kissed and embraced and held the Word of God? And revelation, what of my revelation? Have you, oh, sirs, have you not read my testimony of him in his exalted glory when he comes as king and ruler on a white horse, incarnate word, over the angels, over death, hell, sin, and the grave, and the earth, and the planets, and all things are subject to him. Have you, sir, not read that? Oh, my testimony of him is that he who is, and was, and is to come, the Christ, the eternal Alpha and Omega, the Lamb worthy, slain from the foundation of the world, is Jesus Christ, sir, the carpenter of Galilee. Have you not read? Have you not read? Thank you, dear John. And call Saul of Tarsus. Saul, you're under oath. Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth of God? I do, sir. It says here that you were a Pharisee of the Pharisees, born of the tribe of Benjamin, at the feet of Gamaliel, one of the three great Jewish rabbis that ever lived. That is right, sir. And you persecuted the Christian faith, you threw them into jail, you thought you did God's service in killing this little mean sect called the Christers, the Christians. Yes? Now it says here that you are reputed to have said, the very life you now live in the flesh, you live by the power of the Son of God who lives in you, who gave his life for you, who is Jesus Christ, and you persecuted him. And you killed his followers. I say, sir, with mixed regret and gratitude for what I became. But that is true. Will you tell this court how it is that that came to be? That is a very striking and strange turn of events. You see, I had orders from the Sanhedrin, you know, the ruling governing body of the Jews there in Jerusalem, yes, sir. While I was leading, my horse had an entourage of troops, and we were going down the Damascus Road to a little town in Damascus, and we had a whole bunch of Christians cornered up, and we were waiting to jail them. Oh, it pales me. It fills me with rapture to hear it, to think of it again. And in a moment, a blinding light at noonday that struck me from my horse. And I heard the very voice of God said, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? I fell to my knees, and I said, Lord, who are you? I'm not persecuting anybody. Who are you? And he said, I am Jesus, whom thou persecutest. He said, sir, I went into the Arabian Desert, and I spent two years. Well, the first three days in the street called straight led by a man named Ananias. I couldn't speak. I couldn't hear. I couldn't. Lord, I was just caught up in my mind. And Jesus became so real that I began to write death and height and principalities and powers and things in the earth and on the earth and above the earth and under the earth. Nothing shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus. I love him, sir. Don't you understand? Yes, order in the court. Take the witness quietly now, Paul. Oh, sir, the love of Christ constraineth me. I must but speak. Quiet, sir. But I cannot but speak. And tell the things that I've seen and heard and experienced. Yes, Mr. Saul of Tarsus. But you'll have your day. And you can write it all down. And you know, I'd rather think that folks will read it after you for years to come. Thank you, Your Honor. I apologize if I've disturbed the court with my outburst. But you see, Jesus is so wonderful. He's just... Thank you, Saul. Thank you. Call the next witness. Call in Simon Peter. Rugged fisherman. Peter? Yeah? Tell us you followed Jesus. You're a big, strong guy. You wanted to cold cock everybody that got in his way. Yeah? One night I took out my sword. Peter, Peter, just answer the questions. How is it, sir, that on a given night, this little maid here says, You denied him. And you swore. I know not the man. Peter? Peter? Peter, a tear begins to dance on his cheek. I did deny him. I did say that. But let me tell you, that when he came over and put his hand on my shoulder and said, Peter, I love you anyhow. In that moment, sir, in that night, I said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And it was I, forgiven a second time by His grace, who became God's flaming spokesman on the day of Pentecost and said, You have crucified the Lord of glory, Jesus of Nazareth, whom God hath made to be Lord and God. So that is your testimony, Peter, that He is both Lord and God and Christ. You bet it's my testimony, and I'll fight for Him till death. And He did. You were crucified as your Lord, were you not, Peter? Well, in a way, sir, they nailed me to a cross, too, upside down. But I didn't care, because He is Christ and Lord and God. Call the thief. Thank you, Peter. The thief nailed to the cross. Your Honor, I object. Surely we cannot expect to hear any, no honest testimony from a man who was a condemned thief and a noted liar. Everybody here, Your Honor, I object to the objection. Objection sustained. And you, sir, are out of order. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, you will strike what you have heard. Both of these attorneys say, because I want to remind you that we are about to hear the testimony of a man who was a convicted, condemned thief. But all we want to know is what words did he say about Jesus in his death? Because when he was dying, he had nothing to gain. And if he ever told a truth in his life, surely it was then. Come to the stand. Come to the stand. Our time is short, and our patience running thin here, Mr. Thief. We're ready to bring in our verdict before long, and we want to hear your last testimony, sir. Now, the record states that there were two of you. One on either side, a left and a right thief. Is that right? That is, sir. It further says that both of the thieves railed on him and rejected him and cast the same in his teeth and laughed at him and said, Son of God, come down from the cross if you're so hot. Is that true? It is, sir. And how is it, sir, that we have later testimony that you believed in him? Sir, it is because I repented. I changed my mind. The longer I stood there and looked at him and listened to him and watched him die, his blood trickled down his throat. And he said, I'm dying for you and ask God to forgive me. I said, Oh, I've been such a bad man. But surely I can do one last noble thing in my life. And I said of him, Thief, why are you railing on this innocent man? He has done nothing amiss. We deserve to be here, but not this Christ. Then I turned to him and I said, Lord Jesus, remember me when you come in your kingdom. And he said, Thief, you'll be with me in paradise today. And Mr. jurors and ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I've been in heaven these 1900 years and all of me... Just a moment, sir. Thank you. We're glad you're enjoying heaven, but will you come back to earth just for a moment? The question was slowly and sensibly and soberly one more time. What was your testimony? You, who were so physically close you could have touched him, the nearest to Jesus when he died. It was, sir. This is an innocent man. He hath done nothing amiss and he is worthy to be my Lord and I receive him as Lord and Savior. Thank you. And now ladies and gentlemen of the jury I'm going to ask that as we reverently call our last witness to the stand the Father himself that we shall stand in honor of his presence. Father we feel somewhat apprehensive and embarrassed to ask you to be here today but would you tell us again what the record states that you said when Jesus was baptized and he came out of the water and the spirit of the Lord descended on him would you say it again for us please Father this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased and dear Heavenly Father we thank you but may we ask you one last question it is reported that subsequent to this experience there was a transfiguration when he was illuminated and glorified in the presence of some of his followers and you spoke a second time to earth about him please say again what you said Father this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased hear ye him it is true then Father that the first time you said simply this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased and the second time you added the phrase hear ye him it is spoken it is done then his being your Son to Christ it that it is required that if we believe that that we must hear him and obey him and not just believe intellectually but do what we do we say we believe we say we believe it is written it is done thank you dear Father we thank you ladies and gentlemen of the jury I conclude with that with which I began Jesus Christ is on trial in every heart tonight what thank you to God what thank you thank you Christ who son is he as you bring in the verdict of the ages evident from the lips and testimony of all who touched his life then you bind your self with the responsibility of obedience and commitment to him if he is who he says he is Will you bow your heads? We're going to vote Your vote Will be your decision Is he worthless? A fraud? A lying imposter? Or is he worthy? Worthy The worthy lamb slain from the foundation of the world If he is Then he's worthy to be your Lord He's worthy to be your Savior And if you vote yes If you vote that way If you vote for Christ I'm going to ask you to step out of your seat And come to the front And say I received Christ I bring in my vote for jesus i accept him as my savior i want to be saved i give my life to christ if you will do it tonight step out come and vote oh yes jesus is worthy worthy that was slain if you'll accept him if you'll vote for him if you trust him if you say he's worthy i want you to leave your place in the stands come down these aisles come here by me right at the front see i receive christ i vote for christ i believe in christ i receive jesus i trust him as my savior i want to be saved tonight come on who'll be first god bless you that's right come quickly everybody's singing he's worthy oh
