This is Why Jesus is Not a Friend of Mine

This video is from a real ska band called Sonseed.

I tried to find lyrics of this song online, but I couldn’t find any. However, courtesy of me, I transcribed the lyrics of song! (Further proof that I have no life.)

Jesus is My Friend by Sonseed

Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is my friend
Jesus is a friend of mine
I have a friend in Jesus

Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is my friend
Jesus is a friend of mine

He taught me how to live my life as it should be
He taught me how to turn my cheek when people laugh at me
I’ve had friends before and I can tell you that
He’s one who will never leave you flat!

Chorus

He taught me how to pray and how to save my soul
He taught me how to praise my god and still play rock and roll
The music may sound different but the message is the same
It’s just an instrumental praise his name

Chorus

Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is a friend of mine

Once I tried to run, I tried to run and hide
But Jesus came and found me and he touched me down inside
He is like a mountie, he always gets his man
And he’ll zap you any way he can. Zap!

Chorus

He loves me when I’m right, He loves me when I’m wrong
He loves me when I waste my time by writing silly songs
He loves me when I’m quiet and I have nothing to say
He’ll love me when I’m perfect if I ever get that way

Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is my friend
Jesus is a friend of mine
I have a friend in Jesus

Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is my friend
Jesus is a friend of mine
I have a friend in Jesus

Jesus is a friend of mine
J-J-J-Jesus
Jesus is a friend of mine

That was frightening, but I did enjoy this part of the song:

But Jesus came and found me and he touched me down inside
He is like a mountie, he always gets his man
And he’ll zap you any way he can

    Love it…watched this awhile ago and almost wept with laughter.

    Best line:

    “Once I tried to run, I tried to run and hide
    But Jesus came and found me and he touched me down inside”

    You forgot to mention after he says “And he’ll zap you any way he can” he adds an extra “Zap!” for good measure ;-)

    This goes back to those slogans against gay marriage that say “I’m in love with another man, and his name is Jesus”. Pretty clever…

    This makes me feel like I’m in a cult. Scary.
