Lyrics
Try Jesus
Encouragement to turn to Jesus for help and guidance
Exercise your mind
Advocacy for mental stimulation and growth
Put it to the test
Challenging oneself mentally
Try this one thing
Suggesting a specific action to try
If you haven't yet
Encouraging those who haven't tried the suggested action
Those who have tried it
Positive view from those who have tried the suggested action
Prefer it most
Expressing a preference for the suggested action
Things are bad that last
Acknowledging temporary difficulties
But not for long
Optimism about overcoming challenges
Exercise your mind
Reiteration of the importance of mental exercise
Put it to the test
Reiterating the challenge to put the mind to the test
Try this one thing
Repeating the suggestion to try a specific action
If you haven't yet
Encouraging those who haven't taken the suggested action
Those who have tried it
Reaffirming the positive experiences of those who tried the action
Prefer it most
Expressing a preference for the suggested action
Things are bad that last
Acknowledging temporary difficulties (repeated)
Things are bad that last
Highlighting the transient nature of challenges (repeated)
Things are bad that last
Emphasizing the impermanence of hardships (repeated)
But not for long
Reiteration of optimism about overcoming challenges
You've been running all your life
Describing a life of constant effort without success
But you just don't win
Highlighting the lack of victory despite persistent efforts
You've chasing after pleasures and good times
Describing the pursuit of pleasures and good times
You've been running (Running)
Repetition of the theme of running
You've been chasing (Chasing)
Repetition of the theme of chasing
And you're getting nowhere (Getting)
Stating the futility of the pursuit
I've been calling for you (Calling)
Calling out for attention and response
But you hear not my call
Noting a lack of response to the call
Try Jesus (Prepare you soul)
Reiteration of the suggestion to try Jesus
Try Him
Encouragement to give Jesus a chance
Exercise your mind
Reiteration of the importance of mental exercise
Put it to the test
Reiterating the challenge to put the mind to the test
Try this one thing (Try Jesus)
Repeating the suggestion to try a specific action (Try Jesus)
If you haven't yet (Try Jesus)
Encouraging those who haven't taken the suggested action (Try Jesus)
Those who have tried it (Try Jesus)
Reaffirming the positive experiences of those who tried the action (Try Jesus)
Prefer it most
Expressing a preference for the suggested action (Try Jesus)
Try Jesus
Repetition of the suggestion to try Jesus
The Maker of our universe (Try Jesus)
Emphasizing the qualities of Jesus as the Maker and Creator
Creator of all things
Highlighting Jesus as the Creator of all things
The answer to all of your questions
Stating Jesus as the answer to all questions
Solutions to all of your problems
Presenting Jesus as the solution to all problems
Try, try Jesus
Final encouragement to try Jesus
