You can save me if you want to
Come and save me ‘cause I want you to
Come inside me, I will let you
I will let you wash away my sin
I sure am glad I met you
God you know I love you
But I've been so bad, God
How can you love me
I can't see you huh, but I know you're there
And I can't touch you but I know you care
God, I love you and I just bought your book
I took it home and had a real long look
And this may not sound nice
But my favourite part is where you died for me
Woo-ooh
God, I love you, yes I do
I'm so happy, saved my life
I was messed up, I was honky jive
You know what I'm talking about
Got your spirit and now I feel so young
You have saved me, even gave me tongues
Jesus I'm so happy I just wish that all my friends would let you in
Oh yeah, mm-mm-hmm
Jesus, I'm so happy I just wish that all my friends would let you in
Come and save me ‘cause I want you to
Come inside me, I will let you
I will let you wash away my sin
I sure am glad I met you
God you know I love you
But I've been so bad, God
How can you love me
I can't see you huh, but I know you're there
And I can't touch you but I know you care
God, I love you and I just bought your book
I took it home and had a real long look
And this may not sound nice
But my favourite part is where you died for me
Woo-ooh
God, I love you, yes I do
I'm so happy, saved my life
I was messed up, I was honky jive
You know what I'm talking about
Got your spirit and now I feel so young
You have saved me, even gave me tongues
Jesus I'm so happy I just wish that all my friends would let you in
Oh yeah, mm-mm-hmm
Jesus, I'm so happy I just wish that all my friends would let you in
lyrics version 3
You can save me
This is a guy calling out to God, a guy asking for salvation you know. But he doesn't know how to pray so [Spoken]
You can save me if you want to
Come and save me ‘cause I want you to
Come inside me, I will let you
Wash away my sin
I sure am glad I met you
God you know I love you
But I've been so bad, God
How can you love me
I can't see you but I know you're there
I can't touch you but I just know you care
God, I love you and I just bought your book
I took it home, I had a real long look
This may not sound nice God
But my favourite part is where you died for me
God, I love you
You have saved my life
I was messed up, I was honky jive
Got your spirit and now I feel so young
You have saved me, even gave me tongues
Jesus, I'm so happy, I just wish that all my friends would let you in
Oh Jesus, I'm so happy, I just wish that all my friends would let you in
