Can Anything Good?

This David MacGregor song sounds like it came from a pageant or musical. The music has a Supertramp flavour to it.

The sheet music is at his site. You can also hear his version there.

My backing isn’t as Supertrampy as his.

Can anything good come out of Naz’reth
To make a difference, change it all
Come from such low repute :
A place of scorn, dispute
To make a difference for us all?

Can anything good come out of Naz’reth?
You brought the best from those you called
Jesus, you gave them hope
Jesus, you gave your life
to make a difference for us all.

Blind will see
Captives free
Poor find news so good
Those oppressed
Will be free
You are love, God, good

Can anything good come out of Naz’reth?
(You’re) found Lord too In those so not like us
whose ways are not our own
There too your face is shown
to makes a difference to us all

Can anything good come out of Naz’reth?
Christ sees the good in who we are
The promise gifted there;
brighten the world somewhere
and make a difference to us all

Blind will see
Captives freed
Poor find news so good
Those oppressed
will be free
You are love, God, good

Can anything good come out of Naz’reth?
You call us now God: “come and see.”
O may we hear your call
O may we heed your call
Come make a difference to us
Come make a difference to us
Come make a difference to us all.
