I was told He was angry
And He hated the music
up too loud
I was told He would save me
If I showed up to church and
I shut my mouth
If I smoked if I drank
If I cussed I'd think
I was on a long black train
to Hell
Yeah I thought I knew Him
'Til I met Him for myself
But the Jesus I know now
Ain't shakin' a fist
Ain't raisin' a brow
Yeah the Jesus I know now
Ain't runnin' away
from a party crowd
I found a friend
Who hangs with the misfits
Listens forgives
Then forgives again
Can't believe I was missin' out
On the Jesus I know now
Mm mm mm
I'm learnin' He likes me
Even when I take a joke a
little too far
Yeah I'm learnin' He knows me
Every hair on my head
Every story behind my scars
And He says who I am
And it ain't what I do
His grace takes some
gettin' used to
I'm learnin' He loves me
Yeah the boy in a bar
And the kid in a pew
Yeah the Jesus I know now
Ain't shakin' a fist
Ain't raisin' a brow
Yeah the Jesus I know now
Ain't runnin' away
from a party crowd
I found a friend
Who hangs with the misfits
Listens forgives
Then forgives again
Can't believe I was missin' out
On the Jesus I know now
On the Jesus I know now
The Jesus I know now
Yeah I got what I wanted
I heard my song on the radio
Left me longin' and lonely
Top of the world with an
empty heart
And nowhere left to go
But back into the arms
Of the Jesus I know now
Ain't just a voice up
there in the clouds
Yeah the Jesus I know now
Ain't lookin' for trophies
to make Him proud
I found a friend
Who hangs with the misfits
Listens forgives
Then forgives again
Can't believe I was missin' out
On the Jesus I know now
On the Jesus I know now
The Jesus I know now
