[Verse] He spoke of a coming day Oh so clear The Son of Man would suffer They'd jeer Rejected by the wise Oh so proud His whispers of love Drowned in the crowd [Verse 2] The scholars held scrolls Their heads held high Yet they missed the truth as He passed by He painted the future The end and the start But blindness prevailed in their hardened hearts [Chorus] Oh the unexpected truth Hidden in plain sight A humble voice that shattered the night He told what must be And they couldn’t see Wisdom dressed in simplicity [Verse 3] Three days later He would rise again The promise of hope The breaking of chains But they mocked and scorned Bound by their pride Blind to the signs that walked beside [Bridge] The learned were fools Their laws grew blind The King of truth They could never find Their books and their words could not comprehend A love that would die and rise again [Chorus] Oh the unexpected truth Hidden in plain sight A humble voice that shattered the night He told what must be And they couldn’t see Wisdom dressed in simplicity
