lyrics

A Savior Of My Own

I think that people find Jesus
When they need him
and I thank God
that I haven't really needed him yet
but I'll bet someday
oh woe...
I'll need a savior of my own.
A savior of my own.

It's not that my bahavior's
been that bad
but I've got guilt about
some things that I did
and things I didn't,
and I don't believe in hell
but I know
there's still a debt I owe,
there's still a debt I owe.

My soul feels so much
heavier than it did
when I was just a kid
before I knew the burden of sin
and should I reach to find salvation
or just up my medication?

I hope that if someday
I go looking for Jesus
I'll find out
that what I'm thinking now
was wrong all along
when I was thinking
I was all alone
without a savior of my own,
a savior of my own
I don't want to be alone no more
without a savior of my own.

Johnny Northrup: vocals and acoustic guitar (live), feedback
Q: drums, percussion
