When Jesus took his ministry into Jericho
A noisy crowd had gathered in the city street below
And as he reached the city gate a sight there was to see
Little olâ Zacchaeus was sittinâ in a tree
Chorus:
Zacchaeus! Zacchaeus! In a sycamore tree
Jesus waved and called to him, âCome down and dine with me.
Oh come down and dine with me.â
Zacchaeus gathered taxes from both the young and old
He really wasnât liked at all. Thatâs what I was told
They hated him for he was rich from tax collectorâs greed
Poorer now than ever, they could not meet their needs.
Chorus:
Zach never knew what to expect when climbing on that limb
Yet he knew he had to go when Jesus called to him
Half the treasure that he owned to the poor he gave away
A poor lost sheep was found again on that blessed day
Chorus:
Time hasnât changed at all. Itâs pretty much the same
At some moment Jesus will be calling on your name
Make the choice to heed His voice, when He comes your way
Heâll be standing by your side when comes the Judgment Day
Chorus:
