The Man Up In The Tree One Saturday I was joggin through my neighborhood I heard the growlin of a chainsaw cuttin through wood Then up high I saw a man trimmin off some limbs And I could hear him singin good ole gospel hymns I watched in amazement as those limbs hit the ground And in just a little while he started comin down I asked him why so happy then he smiled big and wide I’m so happy son because of what I have inside He took me back in time to nineteen fifty seven That’s when I started my journey on this road to heaven In a doctor’s office I asked the Lord my soul to save Now I’ll tell everyone about him till they lay me in the grave He’s a walkin testimony of what Jesus Christ can do What the Lord did in that doctor’s office he can do the same for you He replaced that old heart of stone with his compassion and love The Lord gave him a heart transplant sent from God above It was under that tree when I bowed my head and prayed I asked the Lord into my heart and right there I got saved Now we go to church together and he testifies in the pew He tells how Jesus saved him and he’ll do the same for you He still loves to sing Amazing Grace and What A Day That Will Be He tells how he misses family and friends that one day again he’ll see He says give people while they’re livin the roses they are due Well brother I wanna say this song is my special rose to you He’s a walkin testimony of what Jesus Christ can do What the Lord did in that doctor’s office he can do the same for you He replaced that old heart of stone with his compassion and love The Lord gave him a heart transplant sent from God above He replaced that old heart of stone with his compassion and love The Lord gave him a heart transplant sent from God above
