Jesus Friend Of Sinners OUTLINE: Verse 1, Chorus, Verse 2, Chorus, Bridge 1, Bridge 2, Chorus Verse 1 Jesus Friend of sinners We have strayed so far away We cut down people in Your name But the sword was never ours to swing Jesus Friend of sinners The truth's become so hard to see The world is on their way to You But they're tripping over me Always looking around but never looking up I'm so double minded A plank-eyed saint with dirty hands And a heart divided Chorus: Jesus Friend of sinners Open our eyes to the world At the end of our pointing fingers Let our hearts be led by mercy Help us reach with open hearts and open doors Oh Jesus Friend of sinners Break our hearts for what breaks Yours Verse 2 Jesus Friend of sinners The One whose writing in the sand Made the righteous turn away And the stones fall from their hands Help us to remember we are all the least of these Let the mem'ry of Your mercy Bring Your people to their knees Nobody knows what we're for Only what we're against when we judge the wounded What if we put down our signs Crossed over the lines And loved like You did Bridge 1: You love every lost cause You reach for the outcast For the leper and the lame They're the reason that You came Lord I was that lost cause And I was the outcast But You died for sinners just like me A grateful leper at Your feet Bridge 2: ('Cause) You are good You are good And Your love endures forever (4X) CCLI Song # 6093697 - Jesus Friend of Sinners Mark Hall | Matthew West © 2011 My Refuge Music (Admin. by EMI Christian Music Publishing) Sony/ATV Tree Publishing (Admin. by Sony/ATV Songs LLC) External Combustion Music (Admin. by Word Music Group, Inc.
