Standard (EADGBE)

Which Jesus do you follow?

Which Jesus do you serve?

 If Ephesians says to imitate Christ,

 Why do you look so much like the world?

Chorus

 Cause my Jesus bled and died

 He spent His time with thieves and liars

 He loved the poor and accosted the arrogant

 So which one do you want to be?

Verse 2

Blessed are the poor in spirit

 Or do we pray to be blessed with the wealth of this land?

Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness

 Or do we ache for another taste of this world of shifting sand?

Chorus 2

 Cause my Jesus bled and died for my sins

 He spent His time with thieves and liars

 He loved the poor and accosted the rich

 So which one do you want to be?

Bridge

Who is this that you follow?

 This picture of the American dream

 If Jesus was here would you walk right by on the other side

 Or fall down and worship at His holy feet

Holy, yeah...

Verse 3

Pretty blue eyes and curly brown hair and a clear complexion

 Is how you see Him as He dies for your sins

 But the Word says He was battered and scarred or do you miss that part?

 Sometimes I doubt we’d recognize Him

Chorus 3

 Cause my Jesus bled and died

 He spent His time with thieves and the least of these

 He loved the poor and accosted the comfortable

 So which one do you want to be?

Chorus 4

 Cause my Jesus would never be accepted in my church

 The blood and dirt on His feet might stain the carpet

 But He reaches for the hurting and despises the proud

 And I think He’d prefer Beale St. to the stained glass crowd

 And I know that He can hear me if I cry out loud

Outro

 I want to be like my Jesus

 I want to be like my Jesus

 I want to be like my Jesus (hey yeah)

 I want to be like my Jesus (oh oh ohhhh)

 Not a posterchild for American prosperity, but like my Jesus

 You see I’m tired of living for success and popularity

 I want to be like my Jesus

 But I’m not sure what that means to be like You, Jesus

 Cause You said to live like You, love like You but then You died for me

 Can I be like You Jesus?

 I want to be like you Jesus

 I want to be like my Jesus
