Zaccheus Lyrics

There was a man in Jericho called Zaccheus
There was a man in Jericho called Zaccheus
Now the Hebrews, they were tall, but Zaccheus, he was small
Yet the Lord loved Zaccheus, better than them all

The Lord went walking one day through Jericho town
And the people began to gather from miles around
But Zaccheus, he couldn't see, so he climbed a Sycamore tree
And the Lord looked up and said, "Zaccheus, come down"

The Lord said, "Zaccheus, I am dining with you today Zaccheus, I come to your house, come lead the way"
Then, Zaccheus, he gave a cheer, but the people began to sneer
"This man is a sinner, does the Lord seek lodging here?"

Now Zaccheus was small of stature, but he could show
That a man who is stout of heart can grow and grow
"If I have cheated young and old, I restore the goods four fold"
And salvation came that day to his whole household
