From the recording Thank God For Jesus

Lyrics

I still can't control my temper
And I'm already thirty-three
Same age as he was when they nailed him to a tree
He was healing the blind
And I'm shielding my eyes
and I say that I believe
But I don't want to see the light

At thirty-three years old
If I had been told
That I was gonna die to save the world
I would have said "hell no"
They don't deserve forgiveness
They'll forget me like they've forgotten you
Truth is I don't care enough to save us
Thank God for Jesus
Thank God for Jesus

I'm carrying my anger with everything I have
He was carrying a cross they laid upon his back
And I swear he wears the crown that I would bow for
But I'd rather lose the rose than bother with the thorns

At thirty-three years old
If I had been told
That I was gonna die to save the world
I would have said "hell no"
They don't deserve forgiveness
They'll forget me like they've forgotten you
Truth is I don't care enough to save us
Thank God for Jesus
Thank God for Jesus

I cling to what I know when I should cling to you
Loving those who hate you ain't easy to do

At thirty-three years old if I had been told
That I was gonna die to save the world
I would have said "hell no"
We don't deserve forgiveness
We've forgotten him like we've forgotten you
but you remembered the promise you made us
Thank God for Jesus
Thank God for Jesus

I still can't control my temper
And I'm already thirty-three
Same age as he was when they nailed him to a tree

Prince of Peace
King of Kings
The Great I am
Unto Ages and Ages Amen
