You probably think I’m crazy, just talking to the air
My prayers to you may seem something like despair
Well you don’t know the half of it, I’m desperate as can be
I’ll take every chance I get to secure eternity
That’s right, my God saves
That’s right, everyday
That’s right, my soul thrives
That’s right, Jesus is alive!
You probably wonder how I believe in such complete nonsense
You probably need to touch and feel in the current tense
Well I’m not bound by time or space or any other thing
My God’s bigger than all of that, that is why I sing
That’s right, my God saves
That’s right, everyday
That’s right, my soul thrives
That’s right, Jesus is alive!
You probably think Jesus sounds like an old zombie
That life from death sounds like something from a ghost story
It’s more than that, the turning point of all of history
Christ conquered sin and made the way to Heaven for you and me
That’s right, my God saves
That’s right, everyday
That’s right, my soul thrives
That’s right, Jesus is alive!
You’ve probably heard science proves Christians are not right
But science changes everyday so which theory is right?
My God is constant, never changing, Creator of all things
Until you can then I will choose to accept the love God brings
That’s right, my God saves
That’s right, everyday
That’s right, my soul thrives
That’s right, Jesus is alive!
You probably think that I’m no fun, bound by do’s and don’ts
But that’s not true I serve a God who’s forgiven all my loans
And there’s no place I’d rather be than to be free from all my sin
I choose abundant life, joy not strife, are you listenin’?
That’s right, my God saves
That’s right, everyday
That’s right, my soul thrives
That’s right, Jesus is alive!
You probably see Christians failing, giving God a bad reputation
Hypocrisy and broken promises at the heart of the Christian nation
You know it’s true, I will fail you, for I am just a sinner
But I’m forgiven and God’s turned me from loser into winner
That’s right, my God saves
That’s right, everyday
That’s right, my soul thrives
That’s right, Jesus is alive!
You may wonder why I choose to live in persecution
Why suffer ridicule in Jesus’ name? Is that the best solution?
All I know is what I’ve lived and I’ve experienced
A grace and peace, a lasting hope, assured deliverance!
That’s right, my God saves
That’s right, everyday
That’s right, my soul thrives
That’s right, Jesus is alive!
