Dear Jesus Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Dear Jesus, it's been a long, long time

Been runnin' 'round, rackin' my brain

On why I've wasted life lookin' for freedom

I tried every high, I thought I saw the light

But I been seein' blind



[Chorus]

Would You come into my heart?

Teach me how to live

I'm tired of livin' like a dead man

Don't You think You could forgive?

All the bad things that I've done

Are more than I can bear

Lord, please hear this sinner's prayer



[Verse 2]

Well, dear Jesus, can You hear me now?

I never thought rock bottom would be

So far down; I took the bait of the devil

Hopped on a wrong-way train, goin' hell-bound in a hurry

'Til You called my name



[Chorus]

Would You come into my heart?

Teach me how to live

I'm tired of livin' like a dead man

Don't You think You could forgive?

All the bad things that I've done

Are more than I can bear

Oh, Lord, please hear this sinner's prayer



[Bridge]

Take me home, take me home

I've heard about them backroad streets of gold

Take me home, oh, take me home

To the motherland where the angels roam



[Chorus]

Would You come into my heart?

Teach me how to live

I'm tired of livin' like a dead man

Don't You think You could forgive?

All the bad things that I've done

Are more than I can bear

Yes, Lord, please hear this sinner's prayer

Thank You, Lord, for the sinner's prayer
