All a Big Joke?

I’ve heard some say it was all a hoax
People say He was just a big joke
He fooled a few people, were they high?
It was all a big outrageous lie.

I know this miracle is hard to believe
An idea of a Savior one just can’t conceive.
Once upon a time that’s what I thought
The concept of forgiveness couldn’t be bought.

Then all of sudden tragedy struck
I told myself it was my rotten luck
Then something suddenly came over me
A voice from nowhere setting me free.

“Just fall back and I will catch you.
Let go and just breathe it’s all you can do
Don’t worry a minute any longer
I’m here to heal and make you stronger.”

So now to the naysayer’s I say it all
There may come a time when you may fall
Who’s going to catch you when you do?
I just pray a miracle happens for you.

Now I know the joke was on me
Jesus was here just waiting to see
If I would hear Him when He called out
Listening today I am without doubt.

Now I live day by day without fear
I speak out to others whenever I hear
Unbelievers calling Jesus a hoax
I say to myself, now who’s being the joke?
