A LIVING FOR JEHOVAH!
(New lyrics by Jonathan Caswell…Tune is an old railroad work song entitled “PADDY WORKS ON THE RAILWAY,” …one variation!)
When Christ was born in Bethlehem
He brought our hope to life again,
Brought our hope to life again,
A-living for Jehovah!
Hallelu and hip-hooray!
Hallelu and hip-hooray!
Hallelu and hip hooray…
A-LIVING FOR JEHOVAH!
–
(NOTE: each succeeding Chorus repeats the last line of the previous verse)
–
He met the Elders when past eight
To stay around and set them straight,
Stay around and set them straight…
A-serving his Jehovah!
–
He showed the Elders when just twelve
He kept the Torah off the shelf,
Kept the Torah off the shelf,
Preparing for Jehovah!
–
Jesus came to Calvary
To save us all from sinnery,
Save us all from sinnery
By dying for Jehovah!
–
Christ He came to life again
To resurrect the souls of men,
Resurrect the souls of men
Redeeming for Jehovah!
–
We too, must go His glorious Way,
It cannot wait another day,
Cannot wait another day…
A-living for Jehovah!

Alas, no more than a “parody” of another man’s song, but thank you anyway.
