Jesus got a hold of my life and He won't let me go!
Jesus got into my heart; He got into my soul!
I used to be oh so sad,
But now I'm just so free and so glad,
'Cause Jesus got a hold of my life and He won't let go!
Sometimes I remember how I used to be livin' in sin;
I tried to act happy and free but I wasn't within;
I fooled a lot of friends of mine,
They tho't I had some peace of mind,
But I never had a thing until I opened up and let Jesus in!
Jesus got a hold of my life and He won't let me go!
Jesus got into my heart; He got into my soul!
I used to be oh so sad,
But now I'm just so free and so glad,
'Cause Jesus got a hold of my life and He won't let go!
Aren't you getting' just a bit tired of foolin' around?
You try to laugh your way thro' life but you're not gainin' ground;
Why not try the Lord today,
Just ask Him in your heart to stay,
And you'll find Jesus' love to be the greatest thing that you've ever found!
Jesus got a hold of my life and He won't let me go!
Jesus got into my heart; He got into my soul!
I used to be oh so sad,
But now I'm just so free and so glad,
'Cause Jesus got a hold of my life and He won't let go
