Jesus Lyrics

Kirk Franklin Jesus

Songwriters: Franklin, Kirk;

Ooh, superstar
Never drove around in a fancy car
Kids looked at me funny, momma she had no money
But she always told me, "Baby, know who you are?

I say ooh, don't you know
It was hard always wearing my cousin's clothes
Can you hand me down a dream
With those hand-me-down jeans?
Thought I'd never make it but I made it y'all

'Cause I had Jesus when I had nothing
Had to struggle, and was up to no good
Jesus, the reason I'm still breathing is 'cause
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

Is crazy how you love me
Even when I don't love you like I should
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

Ooh, look at me
I know I'm now all I'm supposed to be
I'm gonna get it right, didn't get here overnight
So while you're waiting please wait patiently

I say ooh, it's so sweet
To know that You were always in love with me
Thought my game was clever
But no one can play me better than You
You know You always win

?Cause You're Jesus, when I had nothing
Had to struggle, and was up to no good
Jesus, the reason I'm still breathing is 'cause
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

Is crazy how You love me
Even when I don't love You like I should
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

Ooh, when I think about Your name I go
Ooh, how You took away my pain I go
Ooh, every night at the club, ain't no wife at the club
That Jesus He be showing me love

It's only by His grace I can say look at me now

Hey Mr. DJ, hey Mr. DJ
Can you play my favorite song? Will you play my favorite?
I heard it say it's gonna get better
We gon? make it out the hood someday

Hey Mr. DJ, hey Mr. DJ
I wanna hear that song about Jesus
I heard my mama crying, I gotta let her know
He's gonna wipe her tears away

Jesus, when I had nothing
Had to struggle, and was up to no good
Jesus, the reason I'm still breathing is 'cause
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

Is crazy how You love me
Even when I don't love You like I should
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

Jesus, hey Mr. DJ, hey Mr. DJ
Jesus, Jesus, hey Mr. DJ
Jesus, Jesus, hey Mr. DJ, hey Mr. DJ
Jesus, Jesus
