Saving Jesus

Bedside clock, 3:14

Lonely house, dead in street

Headlight shadows on the wall

All the old fears come to call

Mind is racing heart to sleep

Tears soaking in the sheets

Alcohol and stubborn pride

Don’t fill the emptiness inside

How long will this keep going on

‘Til you break and just can’t take it anymore?

How low do you have to go

Before your knees finally hit the floor?

What do you think you’re saving Jesus for?

She’d laugh and say that ain’t for me

Faith is only for the weak

Every time her mama prayed

She rolled her eyes and walk away

But now she’s face to face with fear

The doctor’s words bring her to tears

As her world comes crashing down she wonders

Who to turn to now?

How long will this keep going on

‘Til you break and just can’t take it anymore?

How low do you have to go

Before your knees finally hit the floor?

What do you think you’re saving Jesus for?

How long will this keep going on

‘Til you break and just can’t take it anymore?

How low do you have to go

Before your knees finally hit the floor?

What do you think you’re saving Jesus for?
