Desperado Soul


Desperado Soul (Texas Easter worship song)
©2011 Bill Bledsoe ChurchThePeople.com

Started with the small things / it always does
Learned to get my way / by bending rules
Everybody knew / Nothing they could do

Don't know where the time went / but this rebel boy grew older
I took all I could get / then I was gone
Bridges burned / every one / all alone / on my own / in the night

(Chorus) Who can live with a desperado soul?
Going nowhere / anywhere but home
Into the night / far from the light / Who can live with a desperado soul?



Soldiers caught me stealing / the day I feared had come
What they didn't beat to death / they nailed to a cross

The man beside me dying / was the prophet they called Jesus
While I was dying for my sins / I realized He was too
All alone / in the night / of that day / for me

And I said / How could You love me / with all that I have done?
And no one else to blame / but myself
My cross is just what I deserve / and yet You'd die for me
What could You see / in my desperado soul?

(Chorus) Who can live with a desperado soul?
Going nowhere / anywhere but home
Into the night / far from the light / Who can live with a desperado soul?

He said I / knew before I made you / you're worth My life to save
I'm dying for you now / to show that's true
I've been waiting all these years / for your desperado soul
To trust in Me and be with Me / in Paradise today

He said I died for your desperado soul
I've been waiting / to take you home
Out of the night / into the light
He said I died for your desperado soul

And I said Lord / I / believe
Jesus died for my desperado soul
Jesus died / to take me home
Out of the night / into the light
Jesus died for my desperado soul
Jesus died for my desperado soul
