When you've tried everything the world has to offer, and you still have that empty hole you can't seem to fill........why not Jesus? Lead Guitar by James Griffiths
Let's just call it a "Cyber Ministry"!!!!
Story behind the song
You hear so many stories on the news about movie stars, millionaires, rock stars, etc. that seem to have all anyone could want.........and they take their own life out of pure misery or overdose while trying to escape reality. But out of ignorance or just being plain stubborn, they refuse give it up to the One who can deliver them........Jesus. I know, I've tried all that other stuff, but there ain't no high like Jesus; and the best part is that you wake up with it and go to bed with it.......it's never ending. Have you tried it all........why not Jesus?
Lyrics
WHY NOT JESUS
©2007 Duane Rod
You’ve done it all on your own
You did it yourself, you did it alone
You built your mansion high on a hill
But there’s a hole in your soul nothing can fill……Why not Jesus, why not Jesus
In the eyes of the world you’re a big success
You made it to the top, you passed the test
You knocked those down who stood in your way
Now you feel more alone day be day………Why not Jesus, why not Jesus
CHORUS
Why not Jesus………..Why not Jesus
The One who gave all He could give
The One who died so that we could live
Why not Jesus………..Why not Jesus
You’ve done the drugs to escape your mind
You followed the devil and drank His wine
In the morning again through blood shot eyes
You see that it’s all just a temporary high………Why not Jesus, why not Jesus
When you think you can’t face another day
That you’ve tried it all and there’s just no way
When you’ve given up on life and you can’t go on
Cry out to God, and receive His Son……….Why not Jesus, why not Jesus
