It recently occurred to me, that part of our society,
thinks Jesus was just a fine young preacher.
His miracles and prophecies were nothing more than fantasy,
made up, like a Disney movie creature.
Well I know that cannot be true, so I’ll take a minute just to prove,
like Pinocchio, you’ll know it if I lie.
‘Cause Bambi surely brings the tears, while Dumbo flies with massive ears,
but Jesus’ life makes all of those seem dry.
Now, I’m sympathetic to Tarzan, he really became quite a man,
swingin’ round the jungle tree to tree.
But Jesus had a cousin John who never shaved, ate bugs for lunch,
and lost his head just trying to make them see,that
The Lion King bows down before the Lamb,
and Hercules submits to the great I AM,
So the reality on which you build your house,
is that Jesus is still better than Mickey Mouse.
A little mermaid left the sea, and Aladdin stole so he could eat,
but neither one could match the Son of God.
He took some meager loaves of bread and two small fish with which he fed,
the thousands that had come to hear him talk.
Sleeping Beauty got a kiss and awoke to live in marital bliss,
a miracle from any point of view.
But Lazarus was dead for days, when Jesus came and he was raised,
not the only time that death lost to this Jew.
Chorus
It is said the fairest of them all, lived with people very small,
and slept when evil struck with fruit in hand.
I guess that you could say that’s right, but not if you had guessed Snow White,
‘cause Jesus conquered what a garden snake began.
A beauty taming quite a beast, and Cinderella’s tiny feet,
are part of tales that no one would believe.
But The Rescuers could be the title, of the greatest story in the Bible:
God saved us by hanging on a tree.
Chorus
While Disney is still king of animation, Jesus Christ is Lord of
all creation.
