Kristene Dimarco - That's Why Jesus Came lyrics
[Kristene Dimarco - That's Why Jesus Came lyrics]
In my desire for righteousness
I turned my heart into a fortress
Built higher walls with no drawbridge
I grabbed my sword and I clenched my fists
Oh fear divides and separates
And as wisdom often masquerades
But Jesus comes and violates
Every kingdom built to isolate
I thought my whole life
There was just a pull from one side
A dark attempt to see me compromise
Then religion told me to be holy
With a burden on my shoulders
Though meaning well still gave me hell
And I realized just the same
The roads are wide on both sides
But that's why Jesus came
I'm gonna walk this line
Straight through time
Holdin' fast to Jesus Christ
As bombs go off on my left and right
I'm gonna walk this line till
I see the light
I thought my whole life
There was just a pull from one side
A dark attempt to see me compromise
And then religion told me to be holy
With a burden on my shoulders
Though meaning well still gave me hell
And I realized just the same
The roads are wide on both sides
But that's why Jesus came
His yoke is easy
His burden doesn't crush me
His hand is always steady and
So I'll let Him lead
The blind guide blindly but I
See the best when trusting
His hand is always steady
So I'll let Him lead
His yoke is easy and His
Burden doesn't crush me
His hand is always steady
So I'll let Him lead
The blind guide blindly but I
See the best when trusting
His hand is always steady
So I'll let Him lead
Thought my whole life
There was just a pull from one side
A dark attempt to see me compromise
Then religion told me to be holy
With a burden on my shoulders
Though meaning well still gave me hell
And I realized just the same
The roads are wide on both sides
But that's why Jesus came
I'm gonna walk this line
Straight through time
Holdin' fast to Jesus Christ
As bombs go off on my left and right
I'm gonna walk this line till
I see the light
I turned my heart into a fortress
Built higher walls with no drawbridge
I grabbed my sword and I clenched my fists
Oh fear divides and separates
And as wisdom often masquerades
But Jesus comes and violates
Every kingdom built to isolate
I thought my whole life
There was just a pull from one side
A dark attempt to see me compromise
Then religion told me to be holy
With a burden on my shoulders
Though meaning well still gave me hell
And I realized just the same
The roads are wide on both sides
But that's why Jesus came
I'm gonna walk this line
Straight through time
Holdin' fast to Jesus Christ
As bombs go off on my left and right
I'm gonna walk this line till
I see the light
I thought my whole life
There was just a pull from one side
A dark attempt to see me compromise
And then religion told me to be holy
With a burden on my shoulders
Though meaning well still gave me hell
And I realized just the same
The roads are wide on both sides
But that's why Jesus came
His yoke is easy
His burden doesn't crush me
His hand is always steady and
So I'll let Him lead
The blind guide blindly but I
See the best when trusting
His hand is always steady
So I'll let Him lead
His yoke is easy and His
Burden doesn't crush me
His hand is always steady
So I'll let Him lead
The blind guide blindly but I
See the best when trusting
His hand is always steady
So I'll let Him lead
Thought my whole life
There was just a pull from one side
A dark attempt to see me compromise
Then religion told me to be holy
With a burden on my shoulders
Though meaning well still gave me hell
And I realized just the same

Straight through time
Holdin' fast to Jesus Christ
As bombs go off on my left and right
I'm gonna walk this line till
I see the light
