Portrait Ii (Livgren) - Kerry Livgren

He had a different idea, you might have heard His name

He gave us all a new vision, not looking for fortune or fame

His works were a wonder to speak of, His thoughts on another plane

The words that He said were a mystery, no one was sure He was sane

But He knew, He knew more than me or you

No one could see His view, oh, where was He going to?

And He knew, you could tell by the picture He drew

It was totally something new, oh, where was He going to?

He said that He was the answer, the only one near or far

He was trying to show us a new way, He was bright as a star

But nobody understood Him, they said He was not the way

They were lost in the deepest enigma, that few have unraveled today

But He knew, knew what He had to do

Those who belived Him were few, oh, what would He have us do?

And He died, so that justice was satisfied

When He left us the people cried, oh, where was He going to?

He had a different idea, the Master knew the plan

He could see into the future, a true visionary man

The truth is all that He told us, He died but He lives again

He will return to be with us, but who will be ready then?

'Cause He knew, all about me and you

All of His words were true, oh, where was He going to?

Yes He knew, You could tell by the picture He drew

It was totally something new, oh, help us to follow You
