Give Me Jesus

One time for the real ones who seek after the kingdom
No time for the mess that this world has to offer us
Giving in, that’s too easy
If I did, where would I be
Right back in the deep, dark pit that He pulled me out of

I’m not going back, I’m not going back I’m looking ahead
I’ll stay right on track I’ve done things to fill the void
The one my heart cannot ignore
Accepted the world’s version of joy

It captured my freedom, It left me in pieces
But, now I have tasted and I’ve seen
His living water flowing free
He’ll never fail me, His love never failing
Abundant in everything I need

Take the world, but give me Jesus
Take the world, but give me Jesus
That’s the only way to freedom
Take the world, but give me Jesus

Give it up one time for the people who walk in the freedoms
That come when you tangle yourself up in who He is
No person or thing gave me this joy I sing about
And no one can come in and take it away

I’m not going back, I’m not going back I’m looking ahead
I’ll stay right on track I’ve done things to fill the void
The one my heart cannot ignore
Accepted the world’s version of joy

It captured my freedom, It left me in pieces
But, now I have tasted and I’ve seen His living water flowing free He’ll never fail me, His love never failing
Abundant in everything I need

Take the world, but give me Jesus
Take the world, but give me Jesus
That’s the only way to freedom
Take the world, but give me Jesus

Never look down, I keep my head up
No turning round, cuz I got fed up
Of how I was living, thank God for forgiveness
The good Lord is my witness cuz I was out here trippin, trippin
I was found in pieces, held on to my sin for so long couldn’t release it I was too concerned about being considered cheesy
None of that really mattered once I surrendered all to Jesus, to Jesus He saved me, and it never sounds cliche
No more faking, reals the only way
I owe him my life cuz he gave his for mine
The world has nothing to offer, take it
You can give me Jesus
