lyrics

I don't know
By Joel Glenn Wixson
(Chorus)
What was it like for Jesus
Before he went away?
What was it like for Jesus
Try to teach them how to prey?
What was it like for Jesus
All he had to say?

I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know

Was he scared or was he lonely?
Was he loving, was he kind?
Did it seem he was the only man
With trouble on his mind?
Was he sorry for the people
That he had to leave behind?

I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know

Did he understand what happened?
Did he find it all unfair?
Did he cry for all the searching souls
Who didn’t seem to care?
Did he call out to the silence?
Or did he did he know someone was there?

I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
My Daddy was preacher
And he taught me to be kind
And he said that what we sew
Becomes the harvest that we find
And he said the Jesus never thought
The faithful should be blind

And in those final seconds
Did he have something to say
Was he uncertain for a moment
Did he wish he could stay
It seems to me that faith
Is when you do it anyway

I don’t know
