The Rebel Jesus Bebo Norman
THE REBEL JESUS – BEBO
[C]All the streets are filled with laughter and light
[G]and the music of the season
[C]and the merchant's windows are all bright
[G]with the faces of the ch[Em]ildren
[C]and the families hurry into thei[G]r homes
[C]as the sky darkens and f[G]reezes
[C]We'll be gathering around our he[G]arths and tables
[F]Giving thanks for God's [C]graces
[C]and the birth of[D] the rebel Jesus[C]
[C]Well they call him by the Prince of Peace
[G]And they call him by the Savior
[C]and they pray to Him upon the seats
[G]and in every bold endeav[Em]or
[C]and they fill His chuches with t[G]heir pride and gold
[C]as their faith in Him in[G]creases
[C]but they've turned the nature th[G]at I worship in
[F]from a temple to a robbe[C]r's den
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/bebo_norman/the_rebel_jesus_crd.html )
[C]in the words of the rebe[G]l Jesus [C]
[C]We guard our world with locks and guns
[G]and we guard our fine posessions
[C]and once a year when christmas comes
[G]we give to our r[Em]elations
[C]and perhaps we give a li[G]ttle to the poor
[C]if the generosity should[G] seize us
[C]but if anyone of us shou[G]ld interfere
[F]in the business of why t[C]here are poor
[C]we'll get the same as th[G]e rebel Jesus[C]
[C]but pardon me if I have seemed
[G]to take the tone of judgment
[C]for I've no wish to come between
[G]this day and you[Em]r enjoyment
[C]in a life of hardship an[G]d of earthly toil
[C]there's a need for anyth[G]ing that frees us
[C]So I bid you pleasure an[G]d I bid you cheer
[F]from a heathen and a pag[C]an
[C]on the side of t[G]he rebel Jesus[C]
