when i saw jesus




when i saw jesus

when i saw jesus it was not all right
my eyes were burning in the morning light
he said to see me get out of my sight
when i saw jesus

when i saw jesus it was not ok
my eyes were burning in the heat of the day
he said to be with me you must go away
when i saw jesus

when i saw jesus it was not so good
teens were screamin’ in my neighborhood
he said the truth could not be understood
when i saw jesus

when i saw jesus there was no smile
he said his daddy’s comin’ back in a little while
a guilty verdict was announced at our trial
and forgiveness is not his style
