Jesus Saves                    CCLI# 6251893
V1/V2/C/V3/C/B/C

Vs 1
I remember riding past the graffiti 
Painted concrete building sides
Jesus saves scrawled in bold blood letters
Caught by the corner of my eye

Vs 2
I had no idea what that phrase could mean
I was so removed from that scene
The pristine ghetto from where I came
Never even heard that we needed to be saved

Chorus:
Jesus saves - A place in heaven for someone like me
Jesus saves - My soul from pain from the horror of what could be
Jesus saves - He gathers all the lost and heavy laden
Jesus saves - A place in paradise for those who will name Him KING   
For those who will name Him  KING   
 
Vs 3
More than a few decades would come and go
Before I made the connection
Of the graffitied ghettoed message
And the meaning of redemption

Chorus:

BGV:
Someone used a can of paint		Inviting all unlikely saints
A glint of hope amidst misery		Spreading good news for all to see
I don’t condone defacing property	But I found truth 	Jesus saves 	you and me

Bridge:
He spares me from the flames of hell - He cares for me more than I can tell
He wipes my tears He gives me peace - His love for me a sweet release
From gripping certain misery - Because of Him I am set free

Chorus
