People wanted to hear this recitation, so I wanted him to do it for us.
I know we've done one, but this is a good one here, and I hope you'll enjoy it.
It's in time of Jesus.
This is Jimmy.
And I hope you'll [Bb] listen to the Word, [D] and you'll find a [G] lodging place in your heart.
[G] What will your [Bm] answer [C] be?
What will you say?
[D] When Jesus taken [G] you home.
His name was Jimmy.
[A] He wasn't very [C] old.
[G] About 10 or 11 years, this bird.
But you wouldn't call the life of Jimmy that, but I'm clear.
Now Jimmy lived in a big town, somewhere in the old part of the [A] nation.
His mom and dad [C] were persecuted.
[D] So this little fella had to sell newspapers to stay off [G] of our mission.
Because you see, mom and dad, they lived the nightlife.
Little Jimmy was just too much of a bother.
[C] But you know, I wonder [G] [D] how they're going to feel when they stand before my [G] head in the front.
Down the street by an old garden mission, little Jimmy was carrying his papers one [C] day.
And from inside he heard the preacher say,
[D] Come to the altar, and my Jesus [G] will give you a new life and a better way.
Now you see, little Jimmy, he had never been to church at his young, happy [C] moment.
He didn't know anything at all about the Lord.
[D] But there was one thing this little fella knew.
About [G] all of it was, he had been neglected.
And somehow he needed someone that he could talk to.
And outside, Jimmy's feet [C] was cold.
[E] There was a lot of [D] water in the room.
And he thought, well [G] inside it just might be safer.
So he went inside, and he laid his paper bag on the altar.
And the preacher went on to say,
You can take this Jesus [D] home with you, and he'll be your father and your [G] mother.
Yes, and he'll be your sister, and he'll be your brother.
Finally, when the last call was [C] given,
and the people began to make their way down to the [G] altar to meet [D] little Jimmy,
finally little Jimmy stepped out.
[G] He walked down to the altar, and he laid his paper bag on the altar.
And he looked into the brother in water's eyes, and he [C] said,
Jesus, [D] this is Jimmy.
Jesus, [G]
this is Jimmy.
You know, I guess you might say it was held in a way.
This little fella knew how to pray.
[C] But you know, I believe in the middle friend that day.
For [D] every time they didn't come out of the mission carrying his papers,
he'd always walk [G] inside.
And he'd kneel down and say his same old humble prayer.
Jesus, this is Jimmy.
[C]
[D] This went on for some time.
But [E] one day [D] again, they came rushing in with the little guy's permission.
The preacher [G] was having a counseling session.
Jimmy didn't realize he was disturbing anyone with his little [Em] humble prayer.
[G] But the preacher walked over to him and he looked down at him and said,
Boy, can't you see that we're busy?
[D] Why do you keep interrupting us like this?
[G] With that same simple, you know, usual prayer.
Jesus, this is Jimmy.
Jimmy looked up at the preacher.
And he said, [C] Preacher, this is the only way that I [D] know how to pray.
And you know, somehow I just want the Lord to know my [G] name.
The preacher said, I can't help you, sir, but you'll have to stop at this place.
Now one more time, [D] little Jimmy was [C] pushed aside.
But he turned away [D] with tears in his eyes.
And he said, Somehow I know I can make it.
[G] It was a cold day.
Jimmy slipped on the curb.
And he was hit by a big truck on the road.
The preacher heard [C] the screaming of the folks.
He ran to the door and got a glimpse of [D] the scene.
Feeling badly for what he had just done.
He [G] rushed to the boy and took him in his arms.
And to the nearest hospital they flew.
The doctor was standing by.
The preacher looked [C] too.
[G]
And once [E] again the preacher heard [D] little Jimmy whisper from his ear,
Jesus, [G] this is Jimmy.
The doctor felt him close.
Then finally turned to the young preacher and he said,
[C] The young life you are soon to be on.
The preacher [D] then, panicking in his voice, cried,
My God, what can you do?
[G] Then all of a sudden,
The room was filled with darkness.
And all [C] of a sudden,
The room was filled [D] with darkness.
[G] And the voice from heaven said,
Jimmy, this is Jesus.
Jimmy, this [D] is Jesus.
[E] So for those children [G] that forbid them not to come [E] unto me,
For as such is the [G] kingdom of heaven.
What will your answer [C] be?
What will you say?
[D] When Jesus [G] bed-times you? Oh.
Thank you, Jesus.
[E] [G]
I know we've done one, but this is a good one here, and I hope you'll enjoy it.
It's in time of Jesus.
This is Jimmy.
