His Name Was John
by The Perrys

Album: Life of Love

A baby boy was born to Zachariah so we're told
In unbelief he was stricken for he thought he was too old
Then the day arrived when the baby came and he looked upon his son
He began to speak - and he wrote these words -
it's John - it's John - it's his name - his name is John

Chorus
And he was John. His name was John
He baptized with the water 'til Jesus came along
Then the Holy Ghost from Heaven decended like a dove
like the prophesy was given by John - he was John - his name was John

God saw it all from the eve of time how it was supposed to be
First there was John and then God's Son and then there was you and me
I can see us all on Jordan's banks when deliverance has come
From the welcome there I will hear a voice sayin' John, my name is John
