It seems like God is talking to me through worship and music alot these days. So sorry if you haven't been enjoying my very random posting about songs God is using to speak to me.
This one I heard on the radio. As the words came over my speakers I was consumed. I realized Jesus never hung out with the Saints. He mingled among the very ones most of us would never give 2 seconds of our time. But take it from someone who has been there " been kicked around" Jesus can cover any unlovely thing and make it Holy and Righteous. Think about these words the next time you are quick to pass judgment. Everyone is offered the same exact gift from Jesus. Remember He became sin so we might become his righteousness!
Jesus rides the subway
With the junkies and the freaks
Jesus rides the subway
With the hustlers and the creeps
He rubs shoulders with the thieves
And he looks a lot like everyone he sees
Jesus rides the subway
While the pretty people sleep, and he says…
You can lay your burden down
You can lay your burden down
Oh, maybe you’ve been kicked around
But you can lay your burden down
Jesus strolls the sidewalks
On the wrong side of the tracks
Jesus strolls the sidewalks
That poverty attacks
He makes his home among the shacks
Where the fatherless have fallen through the cracks
Jesus strolls the sidewalks
While the righteous turn their backs, and he says…
You can lay your burden down
You can lay your burden down
Oh, maybe you’ve been kicked around
But you can lay your burden down
Jesus went to church on Sunday
Sat in the back and sang the hymns
Jesus went to church on Sunday
But they didn't recognize him, and he said...
You can lay your burden down
You can lay your burden down
Oh, maybe you’ve been kicked around
