"MY JESUS"
(drop D tuning) - (Simplified) - Dsus2
Verse 1
I’m (Em9) sick and tired of (G6sus2) letting these (A9) demons walk all (Bm) over me. (Bsus2)
(Em9) Cloudin’ my eyes with their (G6sus2) doubts and their (A9) lies ‘bout what You (Bm) planned for me. (Bsus2)
(G) I’m a mess (Asus2) without You, it’s (Bm) plain to see,
My (G) only chance that (Asus2) I will last is holdin’ (Bm) to Your keys, I see!
(Bm) I’ve (A) tried and I’ve (G) failed,
Through many (A) obstacles (Bm) trailed.
There’ve been (A) times when I’ve (G) bailed
And fallen (A) short of Your (Bm) will.
But I’ll (A) yield and say,(G) “Yes!”,
Not 'cause of (A) any good(Bm)ness
I pos(A)sess in this (G)flesh,
But 'cause I (A) love my Je(Bm)sus.
(Em9) I choose this life,
And (G6sus2) I know the (A9) price (Bm) all too well.
The (Em9)glares of ice, their (G6sus2) double-bladed (A9) knife,
A dark and (Bm) dampened cell.
Some (G) blood will be lost, but (A) You went to the cross
And (Bm)bled for me,
So (G) why should I fuss
When (A)I hear ‘em cuss out what You (Bm) said to me?
Oh Yeah...
(Bm) I’ve (A) tried and I’ve (G) failed,
Through many (A) obstacles (Bm) trailed.
There’ve been (A) times when I’ve (G) bailed
And fallen (A) short of Your (Bm) will.
But I’ll (A)yield and say,(G) “Yes!”,
Not 'cause of (A) any good(Bm)ness
I pos(A)sess in this (G)flesh,
But 'cause I (A) love my Je(Bm)sus.
Soft Chorus
Bm) I’ve (A) tried and I’ve (G) failed,
Through many (A) obstacles (Bm) trailed.
There’ve been (A) times when I’ve (G) bailed
Fallen (A) short of Your (Bm) will.
But I’ll (A) yield, say (G) “Yes!”,
Not 'cause of (A) any good(Bm)ness
I pos(A)sess in this (G) flesh,
Just 'cause I love my Jesus.
Lead Break

Bm A# A G F
I’m (Bm) going (A) in for the (G) kill,
I see a (A) fierce battle (Bm)field,
The skill(A) needed to (G) deal
The greatest (A) damage to (Bm) Hell.
I’ve been (A) filled, I’ve been (G) blessed
With the di(A)scipleship (Bm) zest
Welling (A) up in this (G) chest
To do my best for (Em) Jesus.
Oh for Jes(Bm)us...
Ending
Em Bm

Cause I love my Je(Em)sus
Yeah (Bm)
I love my Jesus!
