brandon lake - talking to jesus (live) lyrics
[verse 1]
grandma used to pray out loud
by her bed every night
to me it sounded like mumblin’
like she was out of her mind
she said, “boy, this kind of prayin’
is what saved my life
you oughta try it some time”
and now i know she was right
[pre+chorus]
she was talkin’ to jesus
she was talkin’ to jesus
and she’d been talkin’ to jesus
for all of her life
[verse 2]
mama used to drag me to church, mm+hmm
sunday mornings and wednesday nights, a lot of church y’all
khaki pants and a polo shirt, what a nerd
boy, i put up a fight
she said, “son, one day, you’ll thank me
for having god in your life”
and yeah, i know she was right
yeah, my mama was right (they always are)
[pre+chorus]
’cause now i’m talkin’ to jesus
she got mе talkin’ to jesus
she got me talkin’ to jеsus
yeah, my mama was right
’cause now i’m talkin’ to jesus
yeah, i love talkin’ to jesus
and i’ll be talkin’ to jesus
for the rest of my life
[chorus]
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus, oh
what a friend we have
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus, oh
[verse 3]
i’ve got three of my own now
tryin’ to raise them up right
my oldest is fifteen
and i remember what that was like
tryin’ to deal with the drama
tryin’ to figure out the questions in life
and i’ve been lookin’ for a way to show him
how to make it alright
[verse 4]
then he walked in my room
while i was sayin’ my prayers the other night
he said, “i’ll come back later
i can tell you got a lot on your mind”
i said, “it’s not an interruption (no, no)
you couldn’t have picked a better time
’cause i was just talkin’ to jesus
come over and give it a try”
[pre+chorus]
we started talkin’ to jesus
we started talkin’ to jesus
we started talkin’ to jesus, oh+woah, yeah
and now he’s talkin’ to jesus
thank god, he’s talkin’ to jesus
i hope he’s talkin’ to jesus
for the rest of his life, yeah
[chorus]
what a friend
what a friend we have in jesus, c’mon charleston
closer than a brother
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus, oh
what a friend we have
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus, oh
[verse 5]
there’s no wrong way to do it
there’s no bad time to start
it don’t have to sound pretty
just tell him what’s on your heart
’cause it’s not a religion, no, no
’cause it’s more like a friendship
so just talk to your father
like you are his kid
[pre+chorus]
just start talkin’ to jesus
just start talkin’ to jesus, even now
you can talk to jesus
whenever you like
just start talkin’ to jesus, just start talkin’ to jesus
yeah, just keep talkin’ to jesus
for the rest of your life
hey, oh+oh, just start talkin’ to jesus
even now, even now, even now, yeah
just start talkin’ to jesus, oh, tell him thank you
tell him thank you
[chorus]
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus, oh+oh+oh
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in him
what a friend we have in jesus, oh+oh+oh
what a friend we have
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus, oh+oh+oh
(a friend, naa+naa)
what a friend we have in jesus
what a friend we have in jesus
(thank you lord, thank you lord)
what a friend we have in jesus, woah+oh
