Jesus Lyrics


Ooh, superstar
Never drove around in a fancy car
Kids looked at me funny, momma she had no money
But she always told me, "Baby, know who you areI say ooh, don't you know
It was hard always wearing my cousin's clothes
Can you hand me down a dream
With those hand-me-down jeans?
Thought I'd never make it but I made it y'all'Cause I had Jesus when I had nothing
Had to struggle, and was up to no good
Jesus, the reason I'm still breathing is 'cause
Jesus, Jesus, JesusIs crazy how you love me
Even when I don't love you like I should
Jesus, Jesus, JesusOoh, look at me
I know I'm now all I'm supposed to be
I'm gonna get it right, didn't get here overnight
So while you're waiting please wait patientlyI say ooh, it's so sweet
To know that You were always in love with me
Thought my game was clever

But no one can play me better than You
You know You always winCause You're Jesus, when I had nothing
Had to struggle, and was up to no good
Jesus, the reason I'm still breathing is 'cause
Jesus, Jesus, JesusIs crazy how You love me
Even when I don't love You like I should
Jesus, Jesus, JesusOoh, when I think about Your name I go
Ooh, how You took away my pain I go
Ooh, every night at the club, ain't no wife at the club
That Jesus He be showing me loveIt's only by His grace I can say look at me nowHey Mr. DJ, hey Mr. DJ
Can you play my favorite song? Will you play my favorite?
I heard it say it's gonna get better
We gon make it out the hood somedayHey Mr. DJ, hey Mr. DJ
I wanna hear that song about Jesus
I heard my mama crying, I gotta let her know
He's gonna wipe her tears awayJesus, when I had nothing
Had to struggle, and was up to no good
Jesus, the reason I'm still breathing is 'cause
Jesus, Jesus, JesusIs crazy how You love me
Even when I don't love You like I should
Jesus, Jesus, JesusJesus, hey Mr. DJ, hey Mr. DJ
Jesus, Jesus, hey Mr. DJ
Jesus, Jesus, hey Mr. DJ, hey Mr. DJ
Jesus, Jesus

Kirk Franklin (born January 26, 1970 in Riverside, Texas) is a platinum-selling musician who blended gospel, hip hop, and R&B in the 1990s. He released his first gospel album, Kirk Franklin & Family, in 1993, and is known as the leader of contemporary gospel choirs such as Kirk Franklin & the Family, Kirk Franklin's Nu Nation, and God's Property.


A native of Fort Worth, Texas, he was raised by his aunt, Gertrude Franklin. He developed a talent for music early, playing the piano at age four and becoming music director of his church at age eleven. After getting kicked out of school in his teenaged years, having a girlfriend become pregnant, and after a friend was shot to death he returned to the church. After leading the DFW Mass Choir at the 1990 Gospel Music Workshop of America Convention, he organized "The Family", a seventeen-voice choir, in 1992 and began his recording career.

He has integrated hip hop styles with gospel themes in albums such as The Nu Nation Project and God's Property, which achieved success on the Billboard Pop Album, R&B and gospel charts.
Franklin has collaborated with the biggest names in gospel music, including Tonex, Donnie McClurkin, Richard Smallwood, Crystal Lewis, Pastor Shirley Caesar, Jaci Valesquez, and Willie Neal Johnson. He also has displayed a willingness to collaborate with artists in the secular realm, including Bono, Mary J. Blige, Crystal Lewis, and R Kelly in the hit single, "Lean on Me."

On October 4, 2005, his new long-awaited album Hero was released, with latest single Looking for You.
