"THE JESUS IN ME"
Lyrics by Peter Merz
Music by Mark E. Ellis
Arrangement by Wayne Bowers
That’s me, foot in my mouth again
I should know better
You’d think I would know better
I can never seem to learn
Well it’s nothing new
Nothing unique
That’s me talking with a tongue of fire
Blurting out a thousand poisoned darts
That's me never counting the scars
I’ve left in a billion broken hearts
Chorus:
Lord, break my heart
‘Til I feel the weight of what I’ve done
And Lord, touch my soul
I know that I’ve got nowhere to run
So let me bleed
Until they see, until they see
So let me bleed
Until they see, until they see
The Jesus in me
That’s me, leaving the widow and orphan
While they’re barely able to scrape by
I see, but pretend I don’t
Then I turn and blame the other guy
That’s me laughing at the homeless man
Hands in my pockets, never wanting to help
I hear him crying from his heart
But I leave him all alone in his private hell
Chorus
Bridge: Oh Lord, I’ve become so hard and cynical
(Oh my God, why can’t I ever learn)
Though there's pain and sufferin' all around me
(It’s high time I face all I’ve done wrong)
So Lord, break my heart and use me even still
(I wanna get it right, get it right this time)
(I wanna get it right this time)
Instrumental
Chorus
