Hey Jesus

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's hard to make an honest living When I'm not an honest guy I cast my net into the water And hope the tide runs high Out there in the distance I see you standing on the shore You said there's a new way of fishing That I've never tried before [Pre-Chorus] I thought You'd call the shots from across the sea But You got down in the boat with me [Chorus] Hey Jesus, I really want to follow You 'Cause no one's ever done for me The things I've watched You do Hey Jesus, I really love who You are I know I've got a ways to go Could You walk with me that far? [Post-Chorus] I'm so glad You called my name Before I could even say Hey Jesus [Verse 2] I got caught up in some trouble But I'm not putting up a fight 'Cause justice comes in the morning For the sinning I do at night, oh yeah Naked and abandoned I'm bracing for the first stone You touch my face and let me know My accusers are gone [Pre-Chorus] Thought You'd take Your place in the Judge's seat But You wrote in the sand for me, oh [Chorus] Hey Jesus, I really want to follow You 'Cause no one's ever done for me The things I've watched You do Hey Jesus, I really love who You are I know I've got a ways to go Could You walk with me that far? [Post-Chorus] I'm so glad You called my name Before I could even say Hey Jesus Hey Jesus Oh, yeah [Verse 3] There are three wooden crosses Two thieves and a King But can't they see the innocence Hanging here next to me? Am I too late for forgiveness? Would You remember me tonight? And with Your dying breath You welcomed me to paradise [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause You could've left me alone in my suffering But You stayed on the cross with me, oh! [Chorus] Hey Jesus, I really want to follow You 'Cause no one's ever done for me The things I've watched You do Hey Jesus, I really love who You are I know I've got a ways to go Could You walk with me Hey, walk with me, yeah [Post-Chorus] I'm so glad You called my name, oh Before I could even say Hey Jesus
