THINGS JESUS SAYS TO ME
Country Rock
Thing Jesus said to me when I was young,
But I didn’t listen I was having too much fun.
The world seemed wonderful and life seemed fine,
Things were so sweet I couldn’t spare him any time, so I said
Things Jesus said to me just the other day,
He said you better open up your eyes and turn the other way.
Don’t get me wrong now, I’m not one to complain,
But how’s someone like me going to change in just one day.
The years have gone and passed me by
The nights were cold as stone
Now I don't ever want to walk one day without you
Without you
Things Jesus says to me now I’ve grown,
It’s good to know that I’m not walking here alone.
It might be a song I hear or something that I see.
He always shows me where I need to be.
Oh I’ve been thinking,
Oh I’ve been missing
All the love that you have for me.
Oh I’m now waiting,
Anticipating
All the Good News that you have for me, yeah, yeah
Things Jesus says to me,
Things Jesus says to me,
Oh now I'm listening, I'm listening, I'm listening, I'm listening, I'm listening
Things Jesus says to me
Things Jesus says to me
Things Jesus says to me
Things Jesus says to me
Things Jesus says to me
Oh, I'm listening now
SCRIPTURE THAT INSPIRED THE SONG
Lamentations 3:27-33 New International Version (NIV)
27 It is good for a man to bear the yoke
while he is young.
28 Let him sit alone in silence,
for the Lord has laid it on him.
29 Let him bury his face in the dust—
there may yet be hope.
30 Let him offer his cheek to one who would strike him,
and let him be filled with disgrace.
31 For no one is cast off
by the Lord forever.
32 Though he brings grief, he will show compassion,
so great is his unfailing love.
33 For he does not willingly bring affliction
or grief to anyone.
