Jealous of Jesus

Father please forgive me
I've been fighting with your son
I know I've been the problem
For a very long time
I get so lost in my worries
Running scared and wasting time
Looking for some answer's
Just to please this heart of mine
It started with my jealousy
I can't get past my pride
I know I can't forgive like Him
No matter how hard I try
He sacrificed for the greater good
That's something I could never do
So how could I ever be like Him
I'm trying to be honest and true
I'm jealous of Jesus
A rock star in His prime
He only spoke in parables
But never sang a song in rhyme
It's hard for me to comprehend
Being so famous will kill man
He can still Rock stadiums
And lead us to the promised land
I don't always do my best
I make mistakes just like the rest
Being lost in all my fears
Never could see things that clear
I know that I'm not in control
But I worry a lot about saving my soul
Trying to be like Jesus
Is a heavy load to tow

So now I'll try to lay to rest
My fear that you will know whats best
And try to practice faith in letting go
I know that I mess up a lot
And I'm grateful for whatever I got
I'd like to be your patriot
If I can be man enough
