(Lyrics to “Here’s a Jersey (demo)” below)
Well, I was draggin’/
Man, I couldn’t pay my bills/
And the collector was a-callin’ my name/

He had a contract, man/
And he was poised to kill/
A-sayin’ “You’re the only one here to blame!”/

I said, “Man, I don’t try to be bad/
I just do it anyway”/

But the convictor shrilled/
“You’re a sinner still!/
And I’m a-sayin’ now’s the time you’re gonna pay!/

(1st *) Then Someone spoke like a thunderbolt/
And said, “This one’s with me”/
Then He turned to me, and said, “I set you free/
Welcome to my team/
Here’s a jersey”/
“Welcome to my team/
Here’s a jersey”/

Well, I was shakin’, man/
What do I make from this?/
Is there a perfect kind of way to respond?/
If God is on our side, then that’s the bottom line/
So who’s really gonna pick a fight with us/

He paid all bills, and though His Son was killed/
He brought Him back to life/
The power for resurrection’s giving us protection/
In a way the other gang ain’t gonna like/

(2nd *) I tell ‘em, “Hey, my Dad can beat up your dad/
So maybe you should switch families/
And my big Brother’s soon comin’ back/
Wanna join our team?/
Here’s a jersey”/
“Wanna join our team?/
Here’s a jersey”/

He’ll take you in/
Though time and time again/
We make such dumb mistakes/
That’s not on what His love is based/

Come breathe new air/
Where freedom beckons dance/
And let the sun illuminate life/
In His love enmeshed with grace/

(guitar solo)

Well, I’m a-hopin’, man/
You’re still a-listenin’/
Because the part about His grace is really key/
It’s like we’re tightrope walkers/
Whose a-knees were knockin’/
Before we had His grace to set us free/

We were scared of fallin’/
So we called Him/
‘Cause the drop meant death/

But now to know the Lord/
It’s like a bungee cord/
And His grace is helping us to take each step/
Yeah/yeah/

(1st *)

(2nd *)

“Wanna join our team?/

Here’s a jersey”/
