lyrics

Well I used to have the blues most every day
you see I was just wasting my life away
'til I found a little country church down the way
and they told me how I could be saved
they said let go of you pride and let Jesus take your blues away.

So I went right on down to an altar of prayer.
They said I could meet the Lord Jesus there.
I asked for forgiveness, I gave Him my cares and suddenly I felt changed.
Jesus came into my heart and He took my blues away.

Well the Bible says the only way that you can be saved is through the cleaning power of Jesus name.
John 3:16, you know it's so true, God so loved the world He gave His Son for you.
I know that my life has really been changed and I can fell Him in my soul today cause Jesus came into my heart and He took my blues away.

If you don;t know Jesus and you're feeling blue
listen and I'll tell you what you've gotta do
just say Lord I'm sorry, come into my heart
I'm tired of living this old way
and Jesus will come into you heart and He'll take your blues away.

Well the Bible says the only way that you can be saved is through the cleaning power of Jesus name.
John 3:16, you know it's so true, God so loved the world He gave His Son for you.
I know that my life has really been changed and I can fell Him in my soul today cause Jesus came into my heart and He took my blues away.
