Song of Praise: Jesus Christ • Jesus was a man • who travelled through the land A hard working man and brave Well he said to the rich: • give your money to the poor Well they laid Jesus Christ in his grave • Halle - hallelujah Halle - hallelujah Halle - hallelujah Well they laid Jesus Christ in his grave

  12. Well he went to the preacher • he went to the law He told them all the same He said: sell all your jewelry • and give it to the poor But they laid Jesus Christ in his grave • Halle - hallelujah Halle - hallelujah Halle - hallelujah Well they laid Jesus Christ in his grave

  13. When Jesus came to town, • all the working folks around Believed what he did say Well the bankers and the preachers, • they nailed him on a cross And they laid Jesus Christ in his grave • And poor working people, • they followed him around They sung and shouted gay Well the cops and the soldiers, • they nailed him in the air And they laid Jesus Christ in his grave

  16. Gospel: Mark 9:30-37 • The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Mark. Glory to you Lord Christ. • Jesus and his disciples went on from there and passed through Galilee. He did not want anyone to know it; for he was teaching his disciples, saying to them, "The Son of Man is to be betrayed into human hands, and they will kill him, and three days after being killed, he will rise again."

  17. But they did not understand what he was saying and were afraid to ask him. • Then they came to Capernaum; and when he was in the house he asked them, "What were you arguing about on the way?" But they were silent, for on the way they had argued with one another who was the greatest. He sat down, called the twelve, and said to them, "Whoever wants to be first must be last of all and servant of all."

  18. Then he took a little child and put it among them; and taking it in his arms, he said to them, "Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me welcomes not me but the one who sent me." • The Gospel of the Lord. • Praise to you Lord Christ.
