about

It's Just a Jesus Thing was written in May 2019. I love this song for it's creative title, suggesting a causality that is not there.

lyrics

Hey man what’s going on, it’s been awhile
Haven’t seen you out at the local well
Somethings different, have you changed your style
It’s just a Jesus thing

The old life has been put to death
Disbelief has been laid to rest
Fear has taken its final breath
10,000 troubles lifted off my chest

My heart of stone has been turned to flesh
I have it all when there’s nothing left
Love replacing bitterness
His grace filling all emptiness

This is a freedom I haven’t known
From the old a new life has grown
The chains I wore are ones I put on
I’m not looking back, the thing is done!

Bridge
I’ve seen chains fall to the ground
I’ve seen the lost become found
I’ve seen the wanderer come back around
I’ve seen the poor receive the crown
It’s just a Jesus thing

I’ve seen the hungry satisfied
I’ve seen the dead come back to life
I’ve seen the hated glorified
I’ve seen the rejected standing by His side
