Was That Jesus

Was that Jesus walking by the river?

Was that Jesus walking in the park?

I thought Jesus only walked in churchyards

What was Jesus doing in the dark?

Was that Jesus' face I saw this morning

Amid the crowd of busy hustling feet

And then again as I came home this evening

Did I see Jesus walking down my street

I don't really want to know the answer

I don't really want to face the change

Everywhere I look I'm seeing Jesus

Everywhere I look it's all so strange

Was that Jesus standing on the corner

With such love and compassion in His eyes

Was that Him or just an apparition

Was that really Jesus in disguise

Everywhere I look, I see the eyes of Jesus

Everywhere I look I see Him beckoning to me

I turn my head away my eyes just cannot stay

For in the eyes of Jesus I see me

I don't really want to know the answer

I don't really want to face the change

Everywhere I look I'm seeing Jesus

Everywhere I look it's all so strange

Was that Jesus listening as I prayed last night

Was that Him who brushed my tears away

Or was it only my imagination

Fading with the coming of the day

No, I saw Jesus smiling as I wakened

I saw Jesus beckoning to me

Come to me, my frail and brokenhearted

Step into my arms and now be free

Be free
