Jesus managed to change our world though possessing little or nothing, living among an oppressed people, long before modern conveniences we enjoy today. We have so much more than He had, and unfortunately do way too little with it to make our world better. This song contains an (grossly incomplete) list of things Jesus DIDN'T have, and a small part of what He managed to accomplish with what He DID have, and taught us to do what we can with what we have where we are...
lyrics
What did Jesus do, without a Coca-Cola?
What did Jesus do, without a 500,000 dollar home?
What did Jesus do, without a new Toyota?
What did Jesus do, without a Facebook page of His Own?
Chorus:
Well, He loved the people,
He showed'm how to help each other live,
He brought the sunshine,
And tried to teach us how to give
What did Jesus do, when He was hot without an aircon?
What did Jesus do, without a pair of tight, designer jeans?
What did Jesus do, without an Apple iThing?
What did Jesus do, without all of our awesome, high-tech machines?
Chorus:
Well, He loved the people,
He showed'm how to help each other live,
He brought the sunshine,
And tried to teach us how to give
And what would Jesus do, if He came to see you?
Would He tell you, "Thanks for following the Law of Love that I gave"
Let me tell you now, He’s is right here with us
And He's all you need to be happy, from the cradle to the grave!
[And beyond!]
Chorus:
Well, He loved the people,
He showed'm how to help each other live,
He brought the sunshine,
And tried to teach us how to give
