Saturday Songs -37- "Give It To Jesus"

Friends: each Saturday this year, we are sending the lyrics and a recorded version of one of our songs.   I wrote this one back in the 1990s, and it's a bit different for us stylistically.  The truth it expresses, however, remains the same, if not even more pertinent now than it was then.  By the way, there's a 7 second pause before the music begins.  Thanks, Glen

“Give It To Jesus”

Well this world in which we live will break your heart.

It’ll reach inside your soul and tear it apart.

So you better look unto the One beyond the stars.

You better give your lonely heart,

Oh give it to Jesus,

Give it to Jesus.

Everywhere you look this sad world is filled with tears,

and the hearts of broken men are failing for fear.

And more and more each day, the only hope you have becomes so clear,

You better give your lonely heart,

Oh give it to Jesus,

Give it to Jesus.

You better give your lonely heart,

you better give your lonely heart,

you better give your lonely heart,

Oh give it to Jesus.
