Alright by Jesus (Robert Thiessen)
I’m a simple man I make no apology
Ya I’ve done my time in college but it never got to me
Ya that quest for higher knowledge it just never met my taste
And when it comes to my salvation brother well that knowledge is just a waste
Chorus
So go ahead and have your fun with your high falutin philosophies
Read into what you want to
To find the things you want to see
But in a world so over complicated my simple philosophy
Is if it’s alright by Jesus it’s alright by me
Jesus said to come just like a child so like a child I will run
Into his loving arms and forever stay in my home beyond the sun
Eternal life is a gift from God I can’t do it on my own
Down this lonely straight and narrow by his saving grace alone
Repeat Chorus
No matter how I try I’ll never figure out creation
I’ll never buy my own salvation by the things I say and do
But it’s my job to always trust him I’m so thankful I can trust him
Because no matter what the problem he will always see me through
Repeat Chorus
