I had a Bar Mitzvah when I was thirteen- greatest Bar Bitzvah that you've ever seen
The temple on the corner of Mayfield and Lee was filled with my friends and family
All of them as proud can be, with catering far as the eye could see
Complete with a chopped liver statue of me

Now they ask me how I can go so wrong, and why all of a sudden I'm singing this song
They say, "Son, you're deserting your fathers of old, so why don't you just come back to the fold
You're such a nice boy or weren't you told that when you were born they broke the mold
So whaddya need with this stuff ya been sold?

Chorus:

But it's a far, far better thing that I do
Than I have ever done, when I believed what they said was true
That Yeshua is God's only Son
Well I've done many things and I don't do a few
But this one thing I do makes me a Jew Born Anew
Yes, through and through I'm a Jew Born Anew

So Hallelujah to Yeshua from a Jew who never knew ya
Could come to die for a schmo like I was
Just so I could win the prize and be with my Messiah in the skies

They say on Bar Mitzvah I became a man- I've tried to live that way, done the best that I can
But I've been worried since way back when 'cause I've never done anything great since then
And though I could live till 110 and never have need of a fountain pen
I might never succeed in the sight of men and they won't let me get Bar Mitzvahed again

(Repeat Chorus)

So Hallelujah to Yeshua from a Jew who never knew ya
Could come to die for a real schlemiel
When I couldn't tell you were the long awaited Holy One of Israel

So all of you who don't know Yeshua, let me introduce Him to ya
He's the blessed Messiah, the Lion of Judah
Who wants to do to ya what He did to me- He came to live in a schlep like I was
Yep, it's true on Christmas morn
The truest Jew that ever was, was born

Lai, lai, lai, lai, lai
That's no lie, lie lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
A Jew Born Anew Am I!
