This Son of David

The following is based off of "Pinball Wizard" by the Who.
Ever since I fell from Heaven
I roamed about the land
From Abel to Zechariah
I plagued the sons of man
But I ain't seen nothing like him
Even I get filled with awe
This Son of David
Fulfills the whole dang Law!

He heals sick and lepers
Makes the paralytics walk
Hangin' out with fishers
The rich men he just balks
The scribes all try to trap him
But they can't find a flaw
This Son of David
Fulfills the whole dang Law!

He debates Sanhedrin
And He always wins
And even stranger
He absolves men of their sins

(How do you think he does it?)
I don't know!
(Who gave him that right?)

His friends are all the rejects
He calls the sinners saints
Don't starts any fightin'
His record's got no taint
Though He's always tempted
Never sins at all
This Son of David
Fulfills the whole dang Law!

I thought I was
In charge of everything
But God just handed
Authority to Him

The gates of hell are broken
I can't beat this man
His disciples are secured
He's snatched them from my hand
The Spirit's gone among them
His church'll never fall
This Son of David
Fulfilled the whole dang Law!
