Some trust the stories they're told
And decide "I believe it all";
Some wouldn't have to be sold
Reluctance is small.
But I'm a much harder sell--

     

Who could imagine the truth of a tale so tall?
Unconvinced by the tale they had to tell.

​

'Guess I'm a SKEPTIC at heart
I laughed at what they said occurred;
Seemed like inspection was smart
To confirm what I'd heard;
And so I said I'd return..

Who could imagine the truth of a tale so tall?
Unconvinced by the tale so I had to learn. 

​

I'm the type of guy who needs to see and touch--I must!
That's the way I receive.
They all knew it was the truth I gave them--
Not that I couldn't believe.

​

I get the knock from my questions;
My story's been told that way;
Hope they recall my professions--
The faith they convey;
When I touched, I knew it was true..
So, this skeptical guy first doubted, then shouted:
I can say it, I really know it's true! 
I've seen and touched it!  Yes!
I can say it, I really know it's true!
