Текст пісні
I was told He was angry
And he hated the music up too loud
I was told He would save me
If I showed up to church and I shut my mouth
If I smoked, if I drank, if I cussed, I'd think
I's on a long black train to hell, yeah
I thought I knew Him 'til I met Him for myself
But the Jesus I know now ain't shaking a fist, ain't raising a brow
Yeah, the Jesus I know now ain't running away from a party crowd
I found a friend who hangs with the misfits
Listens, forgives, then forgives again
Can't believe I was missing out on the Jesus I know now, mm
I'm learning He likes me
Even when I take a joke a little too far
Yeah, I'm learning He knows me
Every hair on my head, every story behind my scars
And He says who I am, and it ain't what I do
His grace takes some getting used to
I'm learning He loves me
Yeah, the boy in the barn (and the kid in the pew)
Yeah, the Jesus I know now ain't shaking a fist, ain't raising a brow
Yeah, the Jesus I know now ain't running away from a party crowd
I found a friend who hangs with the misfits
Listens, forgives, then forgives again
Can't believe I was missing out on the Jesus I know now
On the Jesus I know now (the Jesus I know now)
Yeah, I got what I wanted
I heard my song on the radio
Let me longing and lonely
Top of the world with an empty heart
And nowhere left to go
But back into the arms
Of the Jesus I know now
Ain't just a voice up there in the clouds
Yeah, the Jesus I know now ain't looking for trophies to make him proud
I found a friend who hangs with the misfits
Listens, forgives, then forgives again
Can't believe I was missing out on the Jesus I know now
On the Jesus I know now
The Jesus I know now
