Saturday Song : Honestly, We Just Need Jesus

On weekdays during the season of Lent, we post daily meditations on our website, and on Saturdays we include a piece of music, as well. These songs are submitted by parish family members and friends of Christ Church, and meant to uplift, comfort, and inspire.

We hope that you enjoy.

We Only Need to Follow Christ. When we look at the landscape of our youth, we often see lost souls.  Remember that He draws His children, and it is refreshing to know that in the search for answers, this younger generation is finding that the answer lies in Christ.  This song states that very process.  Listen and rejoice for He will not forsake a single one!

I got a front row seat to the madness

I pick up my phone every morning out of habit

I've been fiendin' for the drama, yeah, I said it

I'm addicted to the rush, need a medic

When I take a step back I can see it

All the pain, all the fear we've been feeling

Losing sight of the thing that we're needing

That we're needing

{Chorus}

Honestly, I think we just need Jesus

Honestly, I think we just need Jesus

Have we all gone mad? Have we lost our minds?

What used to be wrong we say that it's right

Honestly, I think we just need Jеsus

Take a good long look in the mirror

Search my hеart and soul, make it clearer

Help me take Your love, trade the bitter

Leave it in the dust, help me leave it in the dust, Lord

We've been preaching, we've been drinking in the vanity (In the vanity)

Now it's got us questioning our sanity (Sanity)

And we wonder how we get all this anxiety

It's clear to me

{Chorus}

We turn away (We turn away)

We're running back to You (Oh-oh)

Covered in grace (Covered in grace)

God, You can make us new (Make us new)

We turn away (We turn away)

We're running back to You (Oh-oh)

Covered in grace (Covered in grace)

God, You can make us new, ohh

{Chorus}

Oh, Jesus (Jesus, Jesus, Jesus)

We're running back, we're running back to You

We need You, Jesus, oh

We're running back, we're running back to You

We're running back, we're running back to You (Jesus, Jesus, Jesus)

We're running back to You, oh, yeah (Jesus, Jesus, Jesus)

Make us new
