Curtis Mayfield - Jesus lyrics
Maybe the words I say is just another way to pray I don't know Don't think that I'm any saint 'cause I can't do nothin' for you I only asked of you just as I got to do myself Look into your inner self only you know how to be free If you wanna grin let it smile Feel a little happy go on and dance a while Can nobody play down God's lovin' child ‘Cause when the spirit hits you you got to move And just as He made us one of many Then aren't the many of us maybe only one surely can you be the rising sun but The depth of night the light for sight Sort of sets the moral standards of soul Gives you the strength to pay the price of life And rewards you with a bit of fulfillment The definition of true He is more real than you isn't he? Almighty Doctor must have been a heavenly man JESUS! Lot of inspiration all over this land Jesus In spite of your fears you can shed happy tears Jesus! Don't care what you call Him none can befall Him Hear me say Amen! Amen! Amen! Hear me say Amen! Now stand up and clap your hands Amen! Amen! Amen! Ah! Ah! Ah! Travelin' Soul the way the story goes We all know He was crucified But what He gave us never will die! He never had a hustlin' mind Doin' crime wastin' time! Drinkin' that wine Drinkin' and drinkin' and drinkin' and drinkin' You need courage in time of fear Because of undyin' news you hear Talk about Jesus talk about Jesus Strength in time of new temptation Don't want to lose a love relation Talk about Jesus talk about Jesus He never had a hustlin' mind Doin' crime wastin' time Drinkin' that wine Drinkin' and drinkin' and drinkin' and drinkin' and drinkin' and drinkin' The world I see before me is tryin' to make me a slave Jesus! Than to see many children hungry I'd rather go to my grave Jesus! The lovin' way of life Has terribly been arranged Jesus! Something's mighty mighty wrong And it seems awful strange Just like a back up gear there are those in fear Of falling near we who are already here Look-a-here, look-a-here, look-a-here You need courage in time of fear Because of undyin' news you hear Talk about Jesus talk about Jesus Strength in time of new relations Don't want to lose a love relation Talk about Jesus talk about Jesus He never had a hustlin' mind Doin' crime wastin' time Drinkin' that wine Drinkin' and drinkin' and drinkin' and drinkin' and a- Talk about Jesus Talk about Jesus
