Property of Jesus

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Go ahead, talk about him because he makes you doubt Because he has denied himself the things you can't live without Laugh at him behind his back just like the others do Remind him of what he used to be when he comes walkin' through [Chorus] He's the property of Jesus Resent him to the bone You got something better You've got a heart of stone [Verse 2] Stop your conversation when he passes in the street Hope he falls down on himself, oh, won't that be sweet? Because he can't be exploited by superstition anymore Because he can't be bribed or bought by the things that you adore [Chorus] He's the property of Jesus Resent him to the bone You got something better You've got a heart of stone [Verse 3] When the whip that's keeping you in line doesn't make him jump You say he's hard-of-hearin', you say that he's a chump Say he's out of step with reality as you try to test his nerve Because he doesn't pay tribute to the king that you serve [Chorus] He's the property of Jesus Resent him to the bone You got something better You've got a heart of stone [Verse 4] Say that he's a loser 'cause he got no common sense Because he don't increase his worth at someone else's expense Because he's not afraid of trying, you say he's got no style 'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's bound to make you smile [Chorus] He's the property of Jesus Resent him to the bone You got something better You've got a heart of stone [Verse 5] You can laugh at salvation, you can play Olympic games You think that when you rest at last you'll go back from where you came But you've picked up quite a story and you've changed since the womb What happened to the real you, you've been captured but by whom? [Chorus] He's the property of Jesus Resent him to the bone You got something better You've got a heart of stone
