Thomas has a new love in his life
It's not a possession or a wife
Thomas said he heard a higher call
It was something spiritual

He ain't been around in a week or two
Nobody's seen Thomas
Since they crucified the Jew
They say Thomas hid inside a shell
And he's building walls into a prison cell

Thomas doubts he'll ever love again
He says he just can't stand
To love and lose a friend
He says it leaves an awful hole
That reaches down into your very soul

Thomas is a man not big on words
Believes in what he sees, not what he's heard
'Til Jеsus said, "Come put your head in mine
And see thе scars that My love left behind"

He got some hands on experience
That was unlike anything he'd known before
He got some hands on experience
When he reached out and touched
The one he loved so much that day
Hands on experience
Thomas has a new love in his life
