Its been a while now
Since I met you
From eating bitter herbs
to drinking heavens dew
Now I'm on that narrow path
that takes me back to you
Home now to that love embrace
that saves me from my blues
Jesus, your the one that I want
Jesus, your the one that I need
You saved me from the grave
redeemed me by your blood
Jesus, God's risen son
So much has changed
since I first bowed the knee
From livin' that life of sin
to walking with the king of kings
Down besides that crystal streeam
that pours out from your throne
Right back to those lovin' arms
so I wont be alone
Jesus, your the one that I want
Jesus, your the one that I need
You saved me from the grave
gave me life through your love and grace
Jesus, God's risen son
Jesus, God's risen son
At times I've wondered
where it is you've gone
Then you've come and shown me
just how far we've come
Up there by the Fathers side
on behalf of me
Preparing a place to live in love
For eternity
Jesus, your the one that I want
Jesus, your the one that I need
You saved me from the grave
now I'll praise your mighty name
Jesus, God's risen son
Jesus, God's risen son
Jesus, God's risen son
