(Alternate (live 11/18/01) title/lyrics for Jesus, I)

[Zwan]

 

Alt. Lyrics

jesus, i've taken my cross
all to leave and follow thee
jesus, i've taken my cross
all to leave and follow thee

destitute, despised, forsaken
all to leave and follow thee
all to leave and follow thee
jesus

perish every fond ambition
all i've sought or hoped or known
yet how rich is my condition
god and heaven are all my own
god and heaven are all i own

man may trouble to distress me
to drive my heart to the cross
man may trouble to distress me
to drive this heart to the cross

resolute, reborn, resolute
reborn, reborn, reborn, reborn

and i'm waiting for my man
26 pesos in my hand
hey white boy
what you doin' downtown
hey white boy
what you doin' downtown
chasing all those pretty women around
all those pretty women around
all those pretty women

jesus, jesus

jesus, i've taken my cross
all to leave and follow thee
jesus, i've taken my cross
all to leave and follow thee
resolute
reborn
destitute
reborn, reborn, reborn, reborn
reborn, reborn, reborn, reborn

jesus
jesus
jesus
j-e-s-u-s
jesus
j-e-s-u-s
jesus
j-e-s-u-s
jesus
j-e-s-u-s
jesus
j-e-s-u-s
jesus
don't come knockin' around my door
don't come knockin' around my door
