- Sweet jesus Lyrics
Album: Light Inside Album: Light Inside (1994) Songs 4 Life: Renew Your Heart Composer: Gary Chapman There is a river runnin’ through this town It carries the water There isn’t any way to slow it down Or make it stop I was a baby when the big bridge fell So I don’t remember But I have listened to the stories well And so I know they were falling to the surface They were calling to their God And their cry was Sweet Jesus, please won’t you catch us - save us Sweet Jesus, please won’t you hear us crying Fishing for luck beneath the bridge that day A man in his eighties He saw it happen and began to pray As he dove in He found a mother and her baby boy They both wouldn’t make it The mama handed him her only joy He took the child – then he was swimming Like he was twenty He made shoreline then he died And his thoughts were Sweet Jesus, please won’t you catch us - save us Sweet Jesus, please won’t you hear us crying He was crying I miss my mother and the brave old man Though I never knew them They are the soul inside the man I am I bare their dreams And I am walking in their footsteps I am talking to their God And my cry is Sweet Jesus, please won’t you catch us - save us Sweet Jesus, please won’t you hear us Sweet Jesus, please won’t you catch us - save us Sweet Jesus, please won’t you hear us crying We’re all crying There is a river runnin’ through this town It carries the water There isn’t any way to slow it down Or make it stop
