Are You Looking for Jesus?

In Bethlehem they say
"Yes", He came this way
"They laid him in the hay"
But you see, He did not stay...

Then He went to Calvary
Where they hung him on a tree
Yes, they hung Him on a tree
For all the world to see....

But on the cross He did not stay
For then 3 days in a tomb He lay
But when they looked for Him after the Sabbath
They found He had gone away....

Yes, the manger is empty, for He is not there
The cross is bare, for He is not there
The tomb is empty, for He is not there
But the hearts of his followers are full for He can be found there.

Yes, He lay in a manger one day
And on the cross He hung for a day
But in the tomb He could not stay
He said - in the hearts of His people He will live ALWAYS.
