F Well the news spread through Jerusalem, Dm "Tonight a child is born. Gm There are shepherds fallin' to their knees, A# C and angels blowin' horns." F But in their golden halls, Dm the Pharisees scoffed and drank their wine Gm They said, "It's only Hebrew prophesy, A# C we don't care, and besides Am A# C F He's just a kid, that's all He is Dm C One more pebble in the gravel, Dm G one more rumor in the rabble Gm C F Dm C How can He be king? He's just a kid." Well, in no time it seemed the world Was knocking on His door For miracles and wonders They had never seen before Soon the Pharisees stopped laughing And the silver sum was paid And near the end He knelt down In the garden and He prayed I'm just a kid that's all I am I'll need your strength to see me through it And if it is your will I'll do it How can I be King, I'm just a kid? G# A# C F Now I think about the Baby and the Man at Christmas time G# Gm C F Of mothers, sons and fathers and children just like mine G# A# F About the power and unselfishness, love and sacrifice G# D# C D The Gift that we were given and the price And how the news spread through Jerusalem Tonight a child is born There are shepherds falling to there knees And angels blowing horns I wonder how on earth the Pharisees Could scoffed and drink their wine And say he's only Hebrew prophecy We don't care and besides Chorus: He just a kid, that's all He is One more pebble in the gravel One more rumour in the rabel How can He be King, He's just a kid? Oh, how can He be King, He's just a kid?
