When You Were Jesus To Me
by Cheri Keaggy

Album: So I Can Tell

I made it to church
Though just barely there
When the music began it was all I could do
To sit slumped in my chair
How can I worship
In all of this grief?
You said, "friend, you don't have to"
And then you said, "it's okay just to receive"
And you led the way to believe
When you were Jesus to me

I picked up the phone
Sure needed a friend
Hoping to find some perspective and wisdom
And prayer on the other end
I heard grace and truth
And started to see
God confirmed what you said in His word
And then somehow it made sense to me
And I was a little more free
When you were Jesus to me

You were His Love, you were his comfort
Bringing the hope that I needed to find
You held me up when I was falling
Now I know Jesus leaves no one behind
You showed me love, Jesus is Love

He wouldn't budge
He wouldn't give in
So determined to finish the work
That He came to do
Love always wins
Please make it stop
I can't watch You bleed
How I wish You could think of some other way
Instead of dying for me
Lord, You were nailed to that tree
And I became totally free
When You were Jesus to me
