Thats Why Jesus Came by Kristene DiMarco Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In my desire
For righteousness
I turned my heart into a fortress
Built higher walls
With no drawbridge
I grabbed my sword and I clenched my fist
[Verse 2]
Oh, fear divides (Mm-mm)
And separates (Mm-mm)
And as wisdom often masquerades
But Jesus comes (Mm-mm)
And violates (Mm-mm)
Every kingdom built to isolate
[Chorus]
I thought my whole life there was just a pull from one side
A dark attempt to see me compromise
Then religion told me to be holy with the burden on my shoulders
Though meaning well still gavе me hell, and I realizеd just the same
The roads are wide on both sides, but that's why Jesus came
(Mm-mm)
(Mm-mm)
[Verse 3]
Gonna walk this life
Straight through time
Holdin’ fast to Jesus Christ
As bombs go off (Mm-mm)
On my left and right (Mm-mm)
I'm gonna walk this line 'til I see the light
[Chorus]
I thought my whole life there was just a pull from one side
A dark attempt to see me compromise
And then religion told me to be holy with the burden on my shoulders
Though meaning well still gave me hell, and I realized just the same
The roads are wide on both sides, but that’s why Jesus came
(Mm-mm)
(Mm-mm)
[Bridge]
His yoke is easy, His burden doesn't crush me
His hand is always steady
So I let Him lead
The blind guide blindly, but I see the best when trusting
His hand is always steady
So I let Him lead
His yoke is easy and His burden doesn't crush me
His hand is always steady
So I let Him lead
The blind guide blindly, but I see the best when trusting
His hand is always steady
So I let Him lead
[Chorus]
I thought my whole life there was just a pull from one side
A dark attempt to see me compromise
Then religion told me to be holy with the burden on my shoulders
Though meaning well still gave me hell, and I realized just the same
The roads are wide on both sides, but that's why Jesus came
(Mm-mm)
(Mm-mm)
[Outro]
Gonna walk this line
Straight through time
Holdin' fast to Jesus Christ
As bombs go off (Mm-mm)
On my left and right (Mm-mm)
I'm gonna walk this line 'til I see the light
In my desire
For righteousness
I turned my heart into a fortress
Built higher walls
With no drawbridge
I grabbed my sword and I clenched my fist
[Verse 2]
Oh, fear divides (Mm-mm)
And separates (Mm-mm)
And as wisdom often masquerades
But Jesus comes (Mm-mm)
And violates (Mm-mm)

I thought my whole life there was just a pull from one side
A dark attempt to see me compromise
Then religion told me to be holy with the burden on my shoulders
Though meaning well still gavе me hell, and I realizеd just the same
