All the armies that have ever marched
All the navies that have ever set sail
All the rulers that have ever ruled
All the kings that have ever reigned on this earth
All put together
Have not affected the life of man on earth
Like this one solitary life
Born in an obscure village
He was the child of a peasant woman
He worked in a carpenter shop
Until He was thirty years old
And then, for three years
He travelled around the country
Stopping long enough to talk
And listen to people
And to help where he could
He never wrote a book
He never had a hit record
He never went to college
And never ran for public office
He never had a family or owned a house
He never did any of the things
That usually accompany greatness
He had no credentials but himself
