God, show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down
(Jesus walks with me)
The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
(Jesus walks)
And I don't think there is nothing I can do now to right my wrongs
(Jesus walks with me)
I want to talk to God, but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in so long

To the hustlers, killers, murderers, drug dealers, even the strippers
(Jesus walks with them)
To the victims of welfare for we living in hell here, hell yeah
(Jesus walks with them)
Now hear ye hear ye want to see Thee more clearly
I know He hear me when my feet get weary
'Cause we're the almost nearly extinct
We rappers are role models we rap, we don't think
I ain't here to argue about his facial features
Or here to convert atheists into believers
I'm just trying to say the way school needs teachers
The way Kathie Lee needed Regis, that's they way y'all need Jesus
So here go my single dog radio needs this
They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus
That means guns, sex, lies, video taps
But if I talk about God, my record won't get played, huh?
Well, let this take away from my spins
Which will probably take away from my ends
Then I hope this take away from my sins
And bring the day that I'm dreaming about
Next time I'm in the club, everybody screaming out
Jesus Walks

Jenny,

I've gotten away from the writing I did last year. It has been an interesting semester. Barret has been a lot more isolated experience than I imagined. The pressures of life easily overwhelm.

I'm thankful to have worked with you here. I am praying for you and the rest of the staff and I will be reading blogs more often to stay connected with the heart of the people I love.

Keep writing. You've blessed my life.

Grace and peace,

J-Red
