What Manner of Man Is This

R. Holmes

[Chorus]
What manner of a man is this
Who died upon the tree?
What manner of a man is this
Who set the captives free?
You know, he walked, walked upon the water
And He calmed the raging sea
What manner of a man is this
Who gave His life for me?
What manner of a man is this
Who died upon the tree?
What manner of a man is this
Who set the captives free?
You know, he walked, walked upon the water
And He calmed the raging sea
What manner of a man is this
Oh, who gave His life for me?

[Verse 1]
The prophet called Him Emmanuel
The prophet called Him a stone
The angels called Him Jesus
Before He was born
With the world on His shoulder
He was walking all alone
He was seen coming from Boz'rah
With his dyin' garments on

[Chorus]
Yes, what manner of a man is this
Who died upon the tree?
What manner of the man is this
Who set the captives free?
You know, he walked, walked upon the water
And He calmed the raging sea
What manner of a man is this
Oh, that gave His life for me?

[Verse 2]
You know, Ezekiel saw Him coming
As a wheel in the middle of the wheel
And John talked about Him
In the book of the seven seals
You know, Paul gave His description
Brighter than the sun
If you don't know His name, Lord
You'd better run

[Chorus]
What manner of a man is this
Who died upon the tree?
What manner of a man is this
Who set the captives free?
You know, he walked, walked upon the water
And He calmed the raging sea
What manner of a man is this
Who gave His life for me?

[Bridge]
He was born in a manger
He was cradled in a stall
His cross carried to Calvary
And there, He died for all
They laid Him in Joseph's tomb
And so the scripture said
The angels rolled away the stone
Behold, the soldiers fled

[Chorus]
Yes, what manner of a man is this
Who died upon the tree?
What manner of the man is this
Who set the captives free?
You know, he walked, walked upon the water
And He calmed the raging sea
What manner of a man is this
Who gave His life for me?
