Jesus wants to know

“Is anything worth more than your soul?” [1]

A nite with a freak named Nicole,

A lottery win to get off the dole,

“Is anything worth more than your soul?”

“Why did you doubt?” [2]

When I’m with you day-in and day-out

Instead you stay home and pout

“Why did you doubt?”

“Why are you sleeping?” [3]

You should be in the vineyard

Sowing or reaping

“Why are you sleeping?”

"Why do you do not do what I say?” [4]

In order to understand/you have to pray

In order to love /you have to obey

"Why do you do not do what I say? “

“Won’t I leave the 99 to search for you?”[5]

Yeah, everybody else is so untrue

Especially when they get a call at quarter past two
(a.m.)

“Won’t I leave the 99 to search for you?”

“Why do you call Me good?“ [6]

You only do /When I act like you think I should

But the rest of time /My word is so misunderstood

“Why do you call Me good? “

"Do you believe what I say?” [7]

I am the Truth, the Life and the Way.

Unfortunately that fact causes so much dismay,

"Do you believe what I say?"


“How much longer must I put up with you?” [8]

How much longer before I lose My cool?

How much longer before I’ll scream “I pity the fool !”?

“How much longer must I put with you?”
