American Jesus

Open my eyes one night to the light of the TV The things I saw just seemed so hard to believe Starving kids no shoes on their feet and no electricity If they only knew my Jesus then how could this be My Jesus loves me and how do I know Not just because the Bible tells me so The pride of life and all of its lusts He understands cause he's my American Jesus He understands cause he's my American Jesus People's mentality is sometimes eschewed God says our minds should our minds should be renewed Don't be fooled by the things you perceive We don't always need the things we receive Flipped on the radio driving down the road DJ was talking about the latest storm Thousands homeless never seen such a calamity If they only knew my Jesus then how could this be My Jesus loves me and how do I know Not just because the Bible tells me so The pride of life and all of its lusts He understands cause he's my American Jesus He understands cause he's my American Jesus My Jesus loves me and how do I know Not just because the Bible tells me so The pride of life and all of its lusts He understands cause he's my American Jesus He understands cause he's my American Jesus
