Please Don't Pass Me By - Fred Hammond

Verse 1
There was a blind man on the road side, and he heard a commotion yeah
It was Jesus passing by, the crowd and it stirred his emotions
Oh oh oh oh
He'd been displaced his whole life, should he even try
Ohhhhh

(Don't bother Jesus) they say you have nothing
(I’ve nothing to offer) stay in your place
(Right then he knew) he had to choose
(He had nothing to lose)

Chorus
So he cried Jesus, (Jesus), I need you, (I need you, Please don't pass me by)
He cried out Jesus, (Jesus), Not ashamed (to tell you, I need you in my life)
I need you in my life

Verse 2
I'm not much different from that man, and this is the honest truth
Could this sinful one, with this messed up life, could I ever serve you
Oh oh oh oh
People and things clutter my mind, should I even try
Ohhhhh

(Don't bother Jesus) that’s what they say yay yeah
(You have nothing to offer) stay in your place
(I must admit) when I think about it then
(I need you in my life)

Chorus
So I cry Jesus, (Jesus), I need you (I need you)
(Please don't pass me by)
I'm crying out (Jesus), I'm not ashamed (to tell you I need you in my life)

Bridge
As the deer (as the deer panted)
Thirsty for the water yeah (thirsty for the water)
My soul desires and longs to be yeah (to be with you)

Jesus, (I need you, Please don't pass me by)
I don't mean to waste your time but I can't listen to the crowd,
situations in my life telling me to keep it down
but I need you

(I know I'm broken, but you can heal me, Jesus, Jesus I'm calling you)
I might not be worth much
(Might not be worth much, but I'm still willing
Jesus, Jesus, I'm calling you) X2
(Jesus, Jesus)

(Jesus, Jesus I’m calling you)
(Jesus, Jesus)

(Jesus, Jesus) fade…
