A fun little song about trying to describe the joy of knowing Jesus.
Let's just call it a "Cyber Ministry"!!!!
Story behind the song
I wanted to write a fun, lively song that attempted to describe, in earthly terms, the spiritual joy of a relationship with Christ. So many words I can think of; comfort, security, peace, serenity, satisfaction, love, anticipation, and it goes on and on. I just hope the joy comes through in this song and gives you a little taste of indescribable feeling of knowing Jesus.
Lyrics
A LITTLE BIT LIKE
©2011 Duane Rod
It was just another day like any other
I was doing my thing trying to make a dollar
Then a fellow walked up, said I been watchin’ you
You’re either mighty happy or off a bubble or two
He said I know you claim to be a Christian and all
I’ve watched you struggle and I’ve seen you fall
But through the years and all the highs and lows
You keep that smile, and on you go
So I been thinking that maybe it’s time
I ask you a question to settle my mind
Can you tell me about this God, this King
What is it like, this Jesus thing
I said well… let me try to explain
CHORUS
It’s a little bit like being forgiven
A little bit like good clean livin’
A dip in the creek on a hot summer day
The smell of spring and fresh cut hay
Like the arms of a father to a frightened child
Like the love of a mother, tender and mild
Like all your sins being erased
Because this Jesus, He took your place
He said friend many thanks, now I understand
The joy you have is because of this man
Who took your place and took your sin
It’s a little bit like being born again
