Jo Dee Messina - The Jesus I Know Lyrics

Jo Dee Messina Lyrics

"The Jesus I Know"

They say He was a preacher
Runnin' rebels out of homes
Whisperin' 'bout mercy
Screamin' fire and brimstone
They say that He would judge you
Weigh your right and wrongs
Sell you on salvation
Then say you're too far gone

That ain't the truth
I'm telling you

The Jesus I know
Sits at the table with the sinner
No soul
Is so low He won't deliver
If they tell you where you are is somewhere He'll never go
Then they don't know
The Jesus I know

He hears you when you're prayin'
When you don't know the words
When you're at your lowest
He'll get down in the dirt
He's got a reputation
Of rollin' hearts of stone
Everything changes when you know

The Jesus I know
Sits at the table with the sinner
No soul
Is so low He won't deliver
If they tell you where you are is somewhere He'll never go
Then they don't know
The Jesus I know

Whoa, oh, oh, oh
You ain't alone
Whoa, oh, oh
The devil don't want you to know
The Jesus I know

Whoa, oh, oh, oh
The Jesus I know

The Jesus I know
Sits at the table with the sinners
No, no soul
So low He won't deliver
If they tell you where you are is somewhere He'll never go
Then they don't know
The Jesus I know

The Jesus I know
The Jesus I know
The Jesus I know
The Jesus I know
The Jesus I know
