Jackson and Jesus
by Gary Chapman

Album: Circles And Seasons

Jackson was just seventeen
He was full of joy
Caught up in the in between
Young man and Daddy's boy
Made of golden promises
And a brief but shining past
How could he have known that day
Would be his very last
For a moment the car lost control
And heaven welcomed a soul

And the tree where he died still stands
A reminder to all who pass
Of love and a faith that won't die
Of hope for a life that will last
Where the loss is a gain
And there's joy in the pain
As the mystery becomes the plan
For all who receive
And who choose to believe
That the tree where he died still stands

Jesus was just thirty-three
He was the Father's hand
Caught up in the in between
Of being God and man
Lonely for the home he left
And happy to be here
Come to life to save us all
From our collective fear
While He hung on the cross, time stood still
As the Savior surrendered His will

And the tree where he died still stands
A reminder to all who pass
Of love and a faith that won't die
Of hope for a life that will last
Where the loss is a gain
And there's joy in the pain
As the mystery becomes the plan
For all who receive
And who choose to believe
That the tree where he died still stands

A reminder to all who pass
Of love and a faith that won't die
Of hope for a life that will last
Where the loss is a gain
And there's joy in the pain
As the mystery becomes the plan
For all who receive
And who choose to believe
That the tree where he died still stands
It still stands
