Jesus In Disguise
Lyrics:
[English]
Ever get something in your head?
It's nothing you heard
Or something you read
Ever had a cut, but you never saw a blade?
Brought to your knees
But you never prayed
Jesus in disguise
Jehovah passing by
The burden of a tear
Hanging in your eye
Jesus in disguise
A scar across the sky
You were looking for a King you would never recognize
Jesus in disguise
...
Ever feel like you've been somewhere before?
You hold the key, you know which door
Speak the word your lips have never known
Because your heart told you so
Jesus in disguise
Jehovah passing by
The burden of a tear hanging in your eye
Jesus in disguise
A scar across the sky
You were looking for a King you would never recognize
Jesus in disguise
So open my eyes wide as I can
Blind as I am, blind as I am
Open my eyes wide as I can (wide as I can)
Blind as I am, (blind as I am)
Blind as I am
Jesus in disguise
...
Jesus in disguise
...
Jesus in disguise (open my eyes wide as I can)
(Blind as I am, blind as I am)
Jesus in disguise (open my eyes wide as I can)
(Blind as I am, blind as I am)
...
