Lyrics

Verse 1 Comes any good from Nazareth, the scornful challenge as of old Is flung on many'a jeering breath from cloistered cells and marts of gold. Verse 2 Comes any good from Nazareth, behold, the mighty Nazarene, The Lord of life, the Lord of death, through warring ages walks serene. Verse 3 One touch upon His garment's fringe still heals the hurt of bitter years. Before Him yet the demons cringe, He gives the wine of joy for tears. Verse 4 O city of the Carpenter, upon the hill slope old and gray, The world among its pain and stir turns yearning eyes on thee today. Verse 5 For He who dwelt in Nazareth, and wrought with toil of hand and brain, Alone gives victory to faith until the day He come again....
