The Savior Is Found

Trickery, deception, oppression, greed, and confusion rules the land
where the book, a holy writ, kept in that state all its man.
Those man pay their leaders to reveal its true interpretation,
so to maintain an easy life man are taught a false explanation.

Any man may own the book but read in it what they were taught.
Alone came one the truth of the book he independently sought,
found the error of their teachings, to the people gave warning,
and found himself the victim of those paying man's scorning.

It broke his heart but it wasn't enough to make him turn back.
Wayfarers can't error, said the writ, so one he became evading the flack.
Wayfaring confirmed the truth and gave a vision quite clear
but what he had seen there were but few desiring to hear.

He returned to his birthplace among family and ethnic
and there, too, alone in contemplation he was left to sit.
Undesired because of his strangeness in jail he was placed
a number of times before his accusers he ever faced
and even then the charges brought were all a frame,
yet, upon him was placed all their guilt and shame.

In traveling he proclaimed there's a savior who's soon to be,
and in looking over his life he found that it was he!
