A Rose Among Thorns

While strolling through the fields of time
There are many things to see
But nature is the greatest sight
That there could ever be
The greatest of them all to me
Is how the world was formed
And why the roses have to live
Each day among the thorns

One day among the world of thorns a rose began to grow
It was the greatest gift of God this world will ever know
It was the will of God to show that since the world was formed
There had to be a rose to live
And die among the thorns

Along the road to Jericho
A man was left to die
There like a petal from a rose
Two men had passed Him by
A neighbor and a friend came by
And saw His life was scorned
With love he took good care of Him
A rose among the thorns

One day among the world of thorns a rose began to grow
It was the greatest gift of God this world will ever know
It was the will of God to show that since the world was formed
There had to be a rose to live
And die among the thorns

Two thousand years will soon be gone
Since God looked down in love
There in the town of Bethlehem
A rose began to bud
It lived to bloom until one day
Was crushed with awful frown
And then with love from God above
Was moved to higher ground

One day among a world of thorns a rose began to grow
It was the greatest gift of God this world will ever know
It was the gift of God to show that since the world was formed
There had to be a rose to live
And die among the thorns

There had to be a rose to live
And die among the thorns
