about

"My wife, Cynthia, and I had rented a cabin on Beaver Lake in northern Arkansas, and the view from the front porch was breathtaking. I had been reading a book that mentioned the Shema (Deuteronomy 6:5) which every good Jew prays morning and evening. Jesus, when asked which is the greatest commandment, recited “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength”, like any good Jewish son would do. But then, he added a relatively unimportant law (Lev 19:18) as the second greatest commandment, to also “love your neighbor as yourself”. So, inspired by the view and Luke 10:27, I picked up my guitar and wrote “Jesus’ Creed”."

-Wes Birdwell

lyrics

C
1 Hear Israel my son
F
The Lord our God the Lord is one
C
Love the Lord with all your heart
F
All your soul with all you are
Dm G
I say to you in truth
Dm
Learn it in your youth
G
That it may go well with you

Walkdown (5 4 3 2 1)-> Chorus

C
Talk about it when you play
F
Talk about it when you walk the way
C
Talk when on your bed you lay
F
Talk about it when you rise to pray
Dm G
Bind it to your brow

Dm
Tie it to you now, and
G
On the door way of your house


Am
You will not have
F
Any other
Dm G
God but Me

(flute)


C F C F

2. Child, you must understand
You must learn the great command
Love the Lord with all your heart
With all your soul with all your are
If you listen well
Another I will tell, Love
Your neighbor as yourself

Chorus

All the law and
All the prophets
Hang on my words

3. Friend, so much you have heard
You must live the greatest word
Love the Lord with all your heart
All your soul and all you are
Look into the field
A treasure it will yield, What
Was hidden is revealed

Chorus
Chorus- “You will not have…”

Who do they say
Who do you say
That I am, Lord
You are the way
You are the truth
You are the life
You are the Christ
