It was said this Man
Was of n-o reputation
Yet He could stop, the rising storm
With a gesture of His h-and
But He ch-ose to use
His h-ands to h-eal
H-earts o-f darkness
H-earts o-f stone
Just like mine
Would b-e revealed

~Chorus~
He was a M-an of no reputation
And by the w-ise consid-ered a fool
When He spoke about faith and forg-iveness
In a t-ime when the strongest arms ruled
But this M-an of no reputation
Loved the weak, with relentless affection
And He l-oved all those, poor in spirit
Just as they were
He was a M-an of no, reputation

It was said this Man
Brought only confusion
That He'd ach-ieve His ends by any means
And the tr-uth would bring revolut-ion
And for once they were right
The tr-uth set us fr-ee
The h-earts o-f the capt-ive, were His o-nly concern
And the powerful knew
Their days were ending
O-oh
~Chorus~

(Ooo-ooo)

O-ne d-ay soon, the gates of h-eaven will open wide
And the Prince, o-f P-eace will come back, for His bride

But for n-ow we live on these streets
Forbidding and tough
Where push always comes, to shove
And it's said love's never enough
Where a prophet in rags gives hope, to a fearful w-orld
No, i-njustice
No h-eart of darkness
Will keep this v-oice, from b-eing heard
O-oh
He was a M-an of no reputation
And by the wise cons-idered a fool
When He spoke about faith and forg-iveness
In a t-ime when the strongest arms ruled
But this M-an of no reputation
Loves us all with relentless affection
And He loves all those poor in spirit
Come as you are
To the M-an of no reputation
