Jesus Had No Ph.D.

Poor Jesus


He has no Ph.D.


If he returned today


To talk to you and me






Just a poor carpenter


Who would we believe?


He only worked on wood


cut down from FOREST trees.






His words would be dismissed.


No scholar is he.


The authorities would say


Poor Jesus, he has no Ph.D.






Perhaps he should apply


To college and learn theology.


Perhaps he should go to school


And learn from you and me.






The spiritual rules


Written my men whose deeds


Are long forgotten


In time that passes with such speed.






How could he say


That we should heed


He knew the way
