Songs About Jesus
[Verse 1]
Israel
How I desired your affections
All day long
I filled my hands out just to you
But said in pride
Your heart was hard and distant toward me
When you left
The only thing you had to say...

[Chorus]
Was tell Him that I'm in love with someone
Tell Him I've moved past all that now
Just tell Him that I'm in love with someone else
Someone else

[Verse 2]
Israel
When you were young, I came and loved you
Took your hands
And taught you how to walk with Me
But other gods
Preoccupied all your attentions
When you left, the only thing you had to say

[Chorus]
Was tell Him that I'm in love with someone
Tell Him I've moved past all that now
Just tell Him that I'm in love with someone else
You said tell Him that I'm in love with someone
Tell Him I've moved past all that now
Just tell Him that I'm in love with someone else

[Bridge]
Jerusalem, Jerusalem
I've longed to hold you close to Me
Jerusalem, Jerusalem
I've longed to hold you close to Me

[Modified Verse 1]
But other gods
Preoccupied all your attentions
Said in pride
Your heart was hard and distant toward me
When you left
The only thing you had to say...

[Chorus]
Was tell Him that I'm in love with someone
Tell Him I've moved past all that now
Just tell Him that I'm in love with someone else
Just tell Him that I'm in love with someone
Tell Him I've moved past all that now
Just tell Him that I'm in love with someone else
Someone else

[Outro]
Jerusalem, Jerusalem
I've longed to hold you close to Me
And I have not forgotten you
But do you still remember Me?
