My Jesus Told Me So
Embracing Life's Wisdom: My Jesus' Guiding Light
Lyrics
I guess I'm traveling, my last mile
I am in the final stretch of my journey.
Don't feel like, I've got a place to go
I feel lost, without a clear destination.
Just been here thinkin', if I got somethin' in this life to show
I've been reflecting on whether my life has purpose.
Chorus-
Chorus
But I go through life the best way
I navigate life to the best of my ability.
And when people ask me how I know
When questioned about my certainty, I respond.
I just tell them my Jesus, told me so
I attribute my conviction to what Jesus told me.
I just tell them my Jesus, told me so
Reiteration of Jesus guiding the speaker.
You hear a lot of stories
Mention of various life stories.
About the life you're supposed to live
Discussion about the expected way of living.
All the sins you've done
Recognition that sins can be forgiven by God.
The good Lord will forgive
God's forgiveness for one's transgressions.
Chorus
Chorus repetition.
Maybe I'm wrong
Expressing uncertainty about the correctness of beliefs.
Nobody knows for sure
No one is certain about the afterlife.
But I live my life the old gospel way
Living life in accordance with gospel teachings.
Well I guess, I'll soon be dying
Acknowledging the inevitability of death.
Just like a river, somewhere it stops to flow
Comparing life to a river that eventually stops.
But I know I'm right about life
Confident in the correctness of personal beliefs.
And when people ask me how I know
When questioned, attributing certainty to Jesus' guidance.
I just tell them my Jesus, told me so
Reiteration of Jesus as the source of certainty.
I just tell them my Jesus, told me so
Reaffirming Jesus' influence on the speaker.
I just tell them my Jesus, told me so
Continued emphasis on Jesus' role in providing certainty.
He's the only one who really knows
Jesus is portrayed as the only true source of knowledge.
I just tell them my Jesus, told me so
Reiteration of Jesus being the ultimate authority.
He's the only one who really knows
Emphasizing Jesus as the sole arbiter of truth.
I just tell them my Jesus, told me so
Reaffirming Jesus' role in guiding the speaker.
I'm gonna look 'em in the eye
Commitment to face others confidently, guided by Jesus.
And tell 'em Lord my Jesus told me so
Declaration that Jesus informs the speaker's convictions.
