My Testimony
Salesman
When I came looking for Jesus,
I found Jesus was looking for me.
I could tell that Jesus loved me
And He entered my heart that day,
Yes He did, Oh yes He did,
And He entered my heart to stay.
Now it has been many a year,
Since I met Jesus that wonderful day,
And He has blessed me and kept me
Through all those years, thick and thin,
And now that I am very old,
82 if you wanna know I'm still glad
When a child about 70 years ago,
I met Jesus my Savior and Lord.
He has stayed with me when
times was good and some not so good
And some when I did not know
Where to turn or what to do.
But when I prayed and trusted Him
Jesus always made it so things
Always worked out for me
When I came looking for Jesus,
I found Jesus was looking for me.
I could tell that Jesus loved me
And He entered my heart that day,
Yes He did, Oh yes He did,
And He entered my heart to stay.
Now it has been many a year,
Since I met Jesus that wonderful day,
And He has blessed me and kept me
Through all those years, thick and thin,
And now that I am very old,
82 if you wanna know I'm still glad
When a child about 70 years ago,
I met Jesus my Savior and Lord.
He has stayed with me when
times was good and some not so good
And some when I did not know
Where to turn or what to do.
But when I prayed and trusted Him
Jesus always made it so things
Always worked out for me
