John the Baptist stuck in prison
He felt discouraged, so you know what
He sent his disciples over to Jesus
To ask Him, "Are you the Messiah or not?"
They found the Master by the river
Preaching the kingdom has come at last
And they said, "Uh, sir, please excuse us
There's just one question we need to ask"
(Chorus #1)
Are you the one? (Are you the one?)
Or shall we look (or shall we look)
For another? (for another?)
Are you the one?
(Repeat)
Jesus turned and looking at them
He said, "Now boys, you just watch me now."
And he performed some mighty wonders
That just amazed and awed the crowds
Well, those disciples just shook in His presence
They were nearly turning green
And Jesus said, "Now, ya'll go tell John
Not only what you heard but what you seen
He must be the one (He must be the one)
He must be the one (He must be the one)
I know He must be the one (He must be the one)
He's gotta be the one (Gotta be the one)
Those disciples flew back to
That dirty prison of the baptist
And they said, "John, brother, put down those locusts
Put down those grasshoppers, John, man, listen to this
"We've seen some things
I said, man we have some things and we heard even more
Look here, John we've got something to tell you
All about this man they call the Lord
Look here man:
There's a boy that's vexed with demons
That made him cry and shout
And with just one touch from Jesus' hands
Ol' demons came right out
And he healed a man that was crippled, John
Whose back was bent and sore
Hey, remember that old blind man, John
He ain't blind no more
Wait, hold on for this one brother
Just sit back on your bed
Man, we have seen with our own two eyes
This man raises the dead
John looked up and says
"Brothers, don't look another further
(Chorus #2)
He's the one (He's the one)
You don't have to look (He's the one)
For another (He's the one)
He's the one (He's the one)
(Repeat 2 times)
