He Was One of Us

He was born as little children are 
and lived as children do, 
So remember that the Savior
 was once a child like you.

And remember that He lived on earth
in the midst of sinful men, 
And the problems of the present 
existed even then.

He was ridiculed and laughed at
in the same heartbreaking way, 
That we who fight for justice,
are ridiculed today.

He was tempted...He was hungry. 
He was lonely...He was sad. 
There's no sorrowful experience 
that the Savior has not had.

And in the end He was betrayed 
and even crucified, 
For He was truly "One Of Us" -
He lived on earth and died.

So do not heed the skeptics,
who are often heard to say: 
"What does God up in heaven 
know of things we face today."

For, our Father up in heaven
is very much aware 
Of our failures and shortcomings 
and the burdens that we bear.

So whenever you are troubled,
put your problems in God's hand. 
For He has faced all problems
and He will Understand.
