Three friends
were seated at the bar
and much to his surprise,
one of them spotted Jesus
out the corner of his eye.

"Look !",
He said to the other two
"There's Jesus over there ! "

The fellow surely looked the part,
with his beard and long brown hair.

"You must be drunk"
"That can't be Jesus"

The others expressed their doubt.

The believer rose up from his stool

"I'm gonna go find out."

"Excuse me sir,
Are you Jesus?"

"Yes, I am", the Lord replied

The believer yelled, "I told ya so !"

He jumped for joy and cried.

"I've always wanted to meet you !"

He reached out his hand to shake.

He then was touched by the Nazarene
and cured of his back ache.

"My back is better !",he shouted.

"I've suffered pain for years !"

The second man walked over,
"I can't believe my ears."

"Are you really Jesus?"

"Yes", the Lord replied, once more.

And when the man shook Jesus' hand,
his knee stopped being sore.

"I've had Arthritis a long time"

"They said the knee must be replaced"

He ran around, kicking and jumping.

Tears of joy streamed down his face.


The third man came over slowly.

He shook his head,"This just can't be"

Jesus then stretched out his hand,

"The truth shall set you free"

The man screamed in fear,
Don't touch me !"

"I'm on disability"
