Where Did My Jesus Go
Where did my Jesus go
The one I loved so long ago
I wonder if he’s still around
I wonder if he can be found
As a child, in my youth
Jesus used to be the truth
Everything was black and white
Jesus taught me wrong from right
As the world passed me by
The flash of life caught my eye
And was my Jesus there
Couldn’t find him anywhere
I saw the way our lives were run
I saw the way that things got done
I wondered if Jesus was there
Wondered if he could even care
Couldn’t find him in the bank
Or lying drunk in the tank
Jesus are you at the bar
Or riding in a police car
Crazy dreams come in my head
Got to thinking Jesus dead
Then I looked around to see
If he was really part of me
Black and white turn shades of gray
Jesus lives for one more day
He ain’t dead, at least in part
He’s living right here in my heart
