PLEASE DON'T PASS ME BY

 

There was a blind man on the roadside

And he heard a commotion, yeah

It was Jesus passing by with a crowd

And it stirred his emotion

He'd been displaced his whole life

Should he even try

 

Don't bother Jesus

They said

You have nothing to offer

Stay in your place

Right then he knew he had to choose

He had nothing to lose

So he cried

 

CHORUS

Jesus I need You

Please don't pass me by

Jesus I'm not ashamed to tell You

I need you in my life

 

I'm not much different from that man

And this is the honest truth

Could this simple one

With this messed up life

Could I ever serve you?

People and things clutter my mind

Should I even try?

 

Don't bother Jesus

That's what they say

You have nothing to offer

Stay in your place

I must admit

I need You in my life

 

CHORUS

 

As the deer panteth

Thirsty for the water

My soul desires and longs

To be with You, yeah

Jesus I need You

Please don't pass me by

 

I don't mean to waste Your time

But I can't listen to the crowd

Situations in my life

Telling me to keep it down

But I need you

 

I know I'm broken

But You can heal me

Jesus, Jesus, I'm calling You

Might not be worth much

But I'm still willing

Jesus, Jesus I'm calling You
