Composed by John W. Fisher. Christian,Instructional,March,Religious,Sacred. Chords/Lyrics. 3 pages. John Fisher #928327. Published by John Fisher (A0.1342819).JESUS WAS WALKING is a sermon song based on the sermon "On the Way to Jerusalem " preached by Dr. Paul de Jong at First Presbyterian Church, Fort Myers Florida, on December 3, 2023. It is an arrangement of the children's song, " Walking With Jesus " which I first learned in French in Haiti in 1965. I have seen it with cartoons on the internet in Portugese, Spanish and Japanese. My lyrics are anything but childlike. They portray what Mark 10:32-52 tells of the march of Jesus to Jerusalem, where he lays out to the tone deaf disciples that he will be delivered to the priests, and Gentiles, killed, but on the third day he would arise from the dead. And having heard this, James and John ignore his message and want to know who will sit on his right and left when his kingdom comes. He has to correct them that his kingdom was not like that of the Gentiles. The other ten disciples rebuke James and John, but Jesus teaches them that to be great, one must be a servant to all. Finally, a blind man comes forward asking a favor, but unlike James and John, he only asks in humility that he might see. His faith heals him and the march goes on.
Guitar chords are provided and an autoharp would be appropriate.
