The Hooters Shadow of Jesus song lyrics

What happened to the heart that I gave you

What are you hiding in your chest these days

You wanted somebody to save you

I wanted someone who could not be saved

Living in the shadow of Jesus

It's so hard to bear your cross every day

Was it easy for you, Christ,

It's murdering me

Now I'm down on my knees with a reason to pray

You tell me experience has changed you

From where I'm looking that's not hard to see

You wanted out and how could I blame you

When I'm not looking are you blaming me

Living in the shadow of Jesus

It's so hard to bear your cross every day

Was it easy for you, Christ,

It's murdering me

Now I'm down on my knees with a reason to pray

We've shifted into meaningless chatter

This kind of talking could go on for days

We've been through the heart of the matter

Don't make no difference at the end of the day

Living in the shadow of Jesus

It's so hard to bear your cross every day

Was it easy for you, Christ,

It's murdering me

Now I'm down on my knees with a reason to pray
