When Jesus Comes (Original)

I'm not a religious person but in my travels I did a lot of seeking. And this is a song that comes from my heart.

"It's been a long, long time,
I've been searching for my home.
When at night I close my eyes,
And wonder which way I should roam.
I still get those kind of feelings,
I still need to know of the light.
I hope that my soul gets to heaven,
In the right.

When Jesus comes to relieve me,
And I feel he's coming soon.
To receive me,
When Jesus comes please remember,
He'll be coming for you too.

The many miles that we wander,
And the distant lands we see.
Where our brothers fight for freedom,
And our sisters cry for peace.
I can't help but hope that tomorrow,
Love will be stronger than hate.
And a kiss will replace all the hunger,
And seal our fate.

When Jesus comes to relieve me,
And I feel he's coming soon.
To receive me,
When Jesus comes you've got to remember,
He'll be coming for you too."

Elliott, no,no money initially and if ever that became an issue, we would work out the issues beforehand. Thank you sir,. Blessings, Jon

[zerobio]

@revwjh Sure thing, no problem at all. And let me know if there is anything I can do to help. Best regards, Elliott.

@revwjh Sounds great! Good luck to you and the band and keep me in mind. :)

Elliott, I wish to know what it might take for my band Crimson Road to perform this song with your blessing. I know that re-recording it takes written paper and permissions, etc. Just wish to know, I have a female vocalist who could sing this song. thanks, rev.jon

@revwjh Hi there, rev. joh. Nice to hear from you. I'd be honoured if you and your band covered this song and I'd love to hear what you do with it. I assume you are just talking about playing the song here and there and not making any money from it. In that case, by all means go for it. Please keep in touch.

@cbrb40 Hey man, that's so cool.  Really appreciate the support from you and the fact that you can relate. Wish you all the best and hope to keep in touch as the missions continue.

@zerobio That was a beautiful song from the heart and that's all that God wants from us,to put our hearts and souls into the talents He gave us and of course to worship Him. Music is a great way to worship The Lord. I appreciate what you said my buddy Elliott,that made me feel so good I smiled so much reading this. Your talents are so amazing like far ahead of anything I have so I appreciate you being motivated by me. How cool is that? You rock my bro,you're a truly special talent and guy! :)))
