“That Man Looked Like Jesus “
Terry Bell % Terry Harkleroad © 2005

I SAW A LITTLE GIRL CRYIN’ ON THE CITY STREET
EVERY BODY JUST WALKED ON BY
NOBODY SEEMED TO NOTICE HER
AS IF THEY WERE ALL BLIND

I SAW A STRANGER FROM OUT OF THE CROWD
COMFORT AND TAKE AWAY HER FEARS
THAT ‘S WHEN I HEARD HER SAY TO ME
THAT MUST HAVE BEEN JESUS AS HE DISAPPEARED

CHORUS:

THAT MAN LOOKED LIKE JESUS
YOU COULD SEE THE LOVE THERE AND HIS LIGHT
THAT MAN LOOKED LIKE JESUS
AS HE SMILED AND WIPED AWAY
THE TEARS FROM HER EYES

I SAW AN OLD WOMAN TRYING TO CROSS THE STREET
WITH TWO BAGS OF GROCERY’S SHE WAS TIRED AND WEAK
THE PEOPLE IN THEIR CARS WERE IN A WORLD THEIR OWN
TALKING TO EACH OTHER ON THE CELLULAR PHONE

I SAW A CAR PULL UP TO THE CURVE
A MAN IN A SUIT WALKED UP TO HER
HE TOOK HER BAGS AND HELPED HER INTO HIS CAR
I WON’T FORGET HOW IT TOUCHED MY HEART

REPEAT CHORUS:

BRIDGE:

TODAY I FOUND SOME HOPE & FAITH
IN A WORLD I THOUGHT WAS HOPELESS

REPEAT CHORUS:
TAG: THAT MAN LOOKED LIKE JESUS
