A Drink With Jesus
If I could get a drink with Jesus I'd have a whiskey on the rocks
And buy him the richest glass of Cabernet
The neon lights would shine like halos
The band would play like David
We'd talk of life and death and time and space
I'd cry and I'd laugh
I'd tell him what makes me mad
Like when I feel he doesn't answer when I call
He'd listen as I talk
Sip his wine and nod alone
And point out places in my heart where I have it wrong
He'd meet me where I am inside that bar
If I could get a drink with Jesus I'd ask about the church
And why stones are thrown by people who claim his name
I'd ponder his creation
And wonder at his grace
Feel the weight of his forgiveness
Erase my shame
I'd cry and I'd laugh
I'd tell him what makes me mad
Like when I feel he doesn't answer when I call
He'd listen as I talk
Sip his wine and nod alone
And point out places in my heart where I have it wrong
He'd meet me where I am inside that bar
He'd answer all my questions in ways I may not understand
And prove there on that barstool he's fully God and fully man
I'd cry and I'd laugh
I'd tell him what makes me mad
Like when I feel he doesn't answer when I call
He'd listen as I talk
Sip his wine and nod alone
And point out places in my heart where I have it wrong
He'd meet me where I am inside that bar, oh
Lord, meet me where I am inside this bar
And buy him the richest glass of Cabernet
The neon lights would shine like halos
The band would play like David
We'd talk of life and death and time and space
I'd cry and I'd laugh
I'd tell him what makes me mad
Like when I feel he doesn't answer when I call
He'd listen as I talk
Sip his wine and nod alone
And point out places in my heart where I have it wrong
He'd meet me where I am inside that bar
If I could get a drink with Jesus I'd ask about the church
And why stones are thrown by people who claim his name
I'd ponder his creation
And wonder at his grace
Feel the weight of his forgiveness
Erase my shame
I'd cry and I'd laugh
I'd tell him what makes me mad
Like when I feel he doesn't answer when I call
He'd listen as I talk
Sip his wine and nod alone
And point out places in my heart where I have it wrong
He'd meet me where I am inside that bar
He'd answer all my questions in ways I may not understand
And prove there on that barstool he's fully God and fully man
I'd cry and I'd laugh
I'd tell him what makes me mad
Like when I feel he doesn't answer when I call
He'd listen as I talk
Sip his wine and nod alone
And point out places in my heart where I have it wrong
He'd meet me where I am inside that bar, oh
Lord, meet me where I am inside this bar
