I Would Like To Tell You What I Think of Jesus

Whenever Jesus acted it was entirely unique.

• When he taught at the Sermon on the Mount we read, “And when Jesus finished these sayings, the crowds were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.” (Matthew 7:28–29, ESV)
• When Jesus taught in his home town of Nazareth, the people remarked in astonishment, “…“Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works?” (Matthew 13:53–54, ESV)
• Even when the people saw him confront the demonic world we read, “And they were all amazed and said to one another, “What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!”” (Luke 4:36, ESV)
• When his enemies tried to trick him in religious debates like paying taxes, we read: “Jesus said to them, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” And they marveled at him.” (Mark 12:17, ESV)
• When answering an inquiring rich ruler, Mark comments: “. . .  And after that no one dared to ask him any more questions.” (Mark 12:34, ESV)
• When the Levitical priestly guards heard His Gospel invitation, they said, “No one ever spoke like this man!”” (John 7:46, ESV)  
• When in judgement by Pilate, we read: “But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate was amazed.” (Mark 15:5, ESV)
• Even at his death, a centurion remarked: “When the centurion and those who were with him, keeping watch over Jesus, saw the earthquake and what took place, they were filled with awe and said, “Truly this was the Son of God!”” (Matthew 27:54, ESV)

Verse 1[A[

I would love to tell you

What I think of Jesus

Since I found in Him

A friend so strong and true

I would tell you how

He changed my life completely

He did something

That no other friend could do

Chorus

No one ever cared for me like Jesus

There's no other friend so kind as He

No one else could take the sin

And darkness from me

O how much He cared for me

Verse 2

All my life was full of sin

When Jesus found me

All my heart was full

Of misery and woe

Jesus placed His strong

And loving arms around me

And He led me in the way

I ought to go

Verse 3

Ev'ry day He comes to me

With new assurance

More and more I understand

His words of love

But I'll never know

Just why He came to save me

Till someday I see

His blessed face above
