Jesus Alone Is Enough

Jesus Alone Is Enough



 Jesus Alone Is Enough

 Through barrowed pews we get the news
 A choice word spoken in the dark has come to the light
 We walk on egg shells filtered through the evening news
 The choice to either walk in the light or to sing the blues
 Why are you wearing your Sunday best in those shoes
 We fix our eyes on the make believe in what to achieve
 Tell a story in the heart of a parting stranger in the night
 To clap our hands gladly toward the end of the sermon
 Chatter box among us in their fragmented form
 Some would even bother to curse the day they were born
 You can search for treasure out at the midnight mile
 Yet to know all the great while that Jesus alone is enough
 In our 21st century world in quite a rush
 If you can perceive it then you will achieve it with your mind
 Searching for love in all the wrong places filtered traces
 With cold hearts and ego's soaring into the wind
 There's no better friend then him
 For he walked in are shoes over 2, 000 years ago to see
 The laughter of a passing few who would sing a sweet homily
 Jesus alone is enough cause the world outside is very rough
 To love is better then not to at all
 Hence there's no use looking back when your hand is on the plough
 Sharpen your pencils to write a nice message with warm lines
 Look to the future with his awesome love that binds
 For love has gained it also has lost humanities power & cost
 Let's look above to the heavenly love in order to discover
