DEL AMITRI - Jesus Saves lyrics

rate me

Jesus saves, saves little children in distress

Jesus saves, he saves the sick, the penniless

Jesus saves, he saves the dying in their beds

Jesus saves, he saves the drowning, saves the wrecks

Jesus saves, he saves the pure and leaves the rest

Jesus saves, he saves the homeless on the streets

Jesus saves, saves the afflicted, saves the meek

Jesus saves, he saves the hungry, saves the weak

Jesus saves, saves every soul that he can reach

Jesus saves, he saves the useful, leaves the obsolete

Jesus loves, he loves the underdog, he does

Jesus loves downtrodden sinners just like us

Jesus loves, he loves to hear the sound of pain

Just because, well he can't save you if you ain't one of us

The damned, the blind, the deaf, the never-walk-again

Jesus gives to the lame, he gives their limps

Jesus gives to the prostitues, their pimps

Jesus gives, gives us the crackhead's crying wince

Jesus gives, he gives the derelicts their drinks

Jesus gives, so he can watch the swamp of people squirm and sink

'Cause Jesus craves, he craves the brotherhood of man

Jesus craves the bony gripping of its hands

Jesus craves, he craves the cross, he craves the nails

Jesus craves, he craves the pain the mortal feels

Jesus craves all the cruelty that ever made him real

Jesus saves, saves every sinner you can see

Jesus saves, saves even amateurs like me

Jesus saves, saves men of evil, men of greed

Jesus saves, saves you from thinking, just believe

That Jesus saves, and you can lemming-like go walking, to the

Cliffs of eternity
