Danny Frank - Jesus

Jesus came to me on that lonesome highway
He told me not to cry anymore
Well I looked up at him and I said with a grin
Man, what'd you come here for
He said, Daniel I've been walkin' long hard days on this highway
I've been lookin' for truth of some kind
I've seen many moons pass, many seasons roll by me
But there's something I just can't define
People just don't know how hard it is to be me
They think it's all just changin' water into wine
But when they all go back home, it seems they've forgotten
What it is just to simply be kind
Well Jesus what you're saying makes a lot of good sense now
'Cause something don't feel right inside
What else are you thinking? You seem rather lonesome
Please tell me… We've got nothing but time
He said Daniel, I've been thinkin' how I rose up to heaven
After three hot as days in the fire
What I realized down there, while they singed off my hair
Is we've all got our own cross to bear
You must choose how you want to be useful in this world
Are you gonna make love or make war?
All the greed and the fear make it hard to see clear
All the good on this earth anymore
I said man it makes me sad all the wars that we've had
People got no respect over here
So let's get on back home 'fore the sun sets behind us
I said how 'bout let's go grab a beer
He said I must be moving on, these old feet need be walkin'
Don't forget these here words I told you
For if ever your friend be the one turns you in
Just make sure your intentions stay true
And with that fare the well, on this day you should tell
All my disciples to wake up and think again
The son of God I may be, but you can do it without me
For the spirit of truth lies within
Then Jesus walked away just as quiet as he'd entered
With his ratty hair blowin' in the wind
Well it didn't take long 'til I wrote down this song
About the day I met Jesus in the skin
Now you may not believe but someday you will see
He's a plain man just like you and me
The only difference I find is he done gone and died
While most of us are still learning how to live
Jesus came to me on that lonesome highway
He told me not to cry anymore
Well I looked up at him and I said with a grin
Man, what'd you come here for
