Rob Gardner – Art Thou He? lyrics

(Choir Oh... and Ooo... under Narration)
NARRATION (Woman)
Now it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter. And
As Jesus walked in the temple, the people came round about him, asking him
Questions.

PHARISEE
How long dost thou make us to doubt?

CHOIR (in Aramaic)
Adma lamatai?
(How long, Lord?)

PHARISEE
How long dost thou make us to wait on thy word?

CHOIR (in Aramaic)
Omar lan, Omar
(Tell us.)

PHARISEE
If thou be the Christ, wilt thou tell us, that we might believe?

CHOIR (in Aramaic)
Ant hu, ant hu, ant?
(Art Thou He?)

PHARISEE
Tell us so, plainly.

NARRATION (Man)
Jesus answered them, I told you and you believed not, because ye are not of
My sheep. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and I lay down my life
For the sheep. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no
Man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one.

PHARISEE
Thou blasphemest.
People! Take up your stones.

CHOIR (in Aramaic)
M'lal hu.
(He hath spoken it.)

PHARISEE
Hear, how he blasphemeth!
Take up your stones!

CHOIR (in Aramaic)
M'lal hu.
(He hath spoken it.)

PHARISEE
Take up your stones!

CHOIR (in Aramaic)
M'lal hu.
(He hath spoken it.)
M' lal hu.
(He hath spoken it.

NARRATION (Man)
Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shown you from my Father; for
Which of those works do ye stone me?

PHARISEE
For a good work we stone thee not;
But for that thou, being a man,
Makest thyself God.

NARRATION (Man)
Jesus answered them, If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
But if I do, believe the works, that ye may know, and believe, that the
Father is in me, and I in him.
