The Love Of Jesus

© 2004 by Jesse L. McCuin

Well, a comin’ round in the mornin’
     it was the same ol’ thing
Got no water in my body
     and I could feel the sting
And my hands they were a shakin’
     at the reefer’s door
As I’m reachin’ for the bottle
     I gotta have one more

Telephone it is a ringin’
     a friend is on the line
Hey son, I got to tell ya
     I’ll try one more time
Jess, ya got to quit your drinkin’
     cause it won’t be long
Till our kids are gonna miss ya
     when their Daddy’s gone

CHORUS
So let the love of Jesus
     shine it’s light on you
Let the love of Jesus
     fill you through and through
So then the love of Jesus
     will help you carry on
Feel the love of Jesus
     and ya can’t go wrong

So I stumbled through the doorway
     and threw it in the can
But later in the morning
     Thad a change of plan
I had to have that wretched bottle
     so out the door I ran
But I found it had been taken
     by another man

Ever in mv dire position
     boy ya better do right
You’ll need the blessed love of Jesus
     to hold ya day and night
You should trust the love of Jesus
     and to His name be true
So let the love of Jesus
     shine it’s ever lovin’ light on you

REPEAT CHORUS
