Jesus My Lawyer
(verse 1)
I’m blind in trouble, I need someone to defend me,
For all my sins, someone who won’t judge, but will love me.
I recall the nights when I wept beneath the starry skies,
With whiskey breath and heavy heart, I felt the devil’s lies.
(verse 2)
In my darkest hours, I felt the weight of every choice,
Each wrong turn echoing, drowning out my hopeful voice.
The devil’s laughter danced around me, tempting me to stray,
But I held on to faith, praying for a better day.
(chorus)
Jesus, my lawyer, with love that never fades,
God, you’re the judge, through every trial, I’ll be saved.
The devil’s tricks can’t fool me, I’m standing strong and true,
In this courtroom of my heart, Lord, I’ll trust in you.
(verse 3)
I remember the first time I felt that warm embrace,
The smell of jasmine in the air, a sweet and sacred place.
Your voice like honey dripping down, it soothed my troubled mind,
You wrapped me in your mercy, left my fears so far behind.
(verse 4)
Now I walk the narrow path, hand in hand with love divine,
Where every step I take, I taste the promise that you shine.
Through valleys deep and shadows dark, I know I won’t fall through,
With Jesus, my lawyer, I’ll stand up and face the truth.
(chorus)
Jesus, my lawyer, with love that never fades,
God, you’re the judge, through every trial, I’ll be saved.
The devil’s tricks can’t fool me, I’m standing strong and true,
In this courtroom of my heart, Lord, I’ll trust in you.
(bridge)
So here I stand before the throne, no bribes, no hidden plea,
Just faith like a river flowing wild and endlessly.
I won’t let the devil steer me, tempt me to do wrong,
In the arms of love and grace, that’s where I belong.
(verse 5)
With every tear I’ve cried, you’ve wiped them from my face,
You’ve shown me the way to rise, to stand firm in your grace.
In the battles that I fight, I’ll wear your armor bright,
With you beside me, Lord, I’ll march into the light.
(verse 6)
I’ll tell the world your story, how love can break the chains,
How hope can shine in darkness, how joy can heal the pains.
So I’ll sing this song of freedom, a melody so true,
With Jesus as my lawyer, I’m forever bound to you.
(chorus)
Jesus, my lawyer, with love that never fades,
God, you’re the judge, through every trial, I’ll be saved.
The devil’s tricks can’t fool me, I’m standing strong and true,
In this courtroom of my heart, Lord, I’ll trust in you.
(outro)
As I walk this road, I feel your presence near,
You’re my guide and fortress, casting out my fear.
With every step I take, I know I’m never alone,
In this life and beyond, you’re my eternal home.
