Analysis of Oh Jesus
“Oh Jesus!”---
By Michael…
I heard the lord the other day…
He ask me why we’re acting this way…
I really had nothing that I could say---
I gave you oceans and you poisoned my Fish…
I gave you trees for Oxygen and their on your list…
You taking care of the world I only wish---
I gave you clouds and they’re poisoned by rain…
I gave you great Lakes and now they’re a stain…
You people should know that this is really insane---
And you did all this damage after I came-----
And then what happened to my message of Love…
You know I see everything up here from above---
These Wars that you have are all about Greed…
I don’t understand I thought I planted the seed---
I wanted my message of Love to grow…
And you’re killing each other down there below---
I leave you alone for a few thousand years…
And every time I look down I break into tears---
So please if you can answer one question for me…
Is there anything down there that I can’t really see?---
To me it looks like the world’s filled with sin…
I should use my wrath and start over again---
Can you tell me of good that might change my mind?...
May I reach down in your heart and see what I find?---
----******------
Oh Jesus I hear you and I feel your Pain…
But look deep in my Heart some people are sane!---
Your message of love exists all around…
But it’s being muffled by the sound of wars on the ground---
I live by that message of love that you gave…
I teach it to children and them you must save---
Look deep in my heart and you will know this is true…
That love still exists and it all came from you---
Look at my love for my children .. you’ll feel what I say…
You taught me this love and it’s still here today--- *****
