Ben Harper And The Blind Boys Of Alabama - Picture Of Jesus lyrics

It hangs above my altar Like they hung him from a cross I keep one in my wallet For the times I feel lost I feel lost In a wooden frame with splinters Where my family kneels to pray And if you listen close You'll hear the words he used to say I've got a picture of Jesus In his arms so many prayers rest We've got a picture of Jesus And with him we shall be forever blessed Forever blessed Forever blessed Now it has been spoken He would come again But would we recognize This king among men There was a man in our time His words shine bright like the sun He tried to lift the ma**es And was crucified by gun He was a picture of Jesus With him so many prayers rest He is a picture of Jesus In his arms so many prayers So many prayers So many prayers rest With him we shall be forever blessed Forever blessed Forever blessed Some days have no beginning And some days have no end Some roads are straight and narrow And some roads only bend So let us say a prayer For every living thing Walking towards a light From the cross of a king We long to be a picture of Jesus Of Jesus In his arms In his arms so many prayers rest I long to be a picture of Jesus With him we shall be forever blessed With him we shall With him we shall be forever blessed Oh- Oh- I long I've got a picture of Jesus Mmhh
