Lyrics Jesus and Jezebel - Rachel Potter

Preacher says we should love our neighbors
But I don't even know my neighbor's names
And every Sunday it's the same
Trying to find the answers in the stained glass window

All the sins I carry on my shoulders
Well it's a wonder that I made it through the door
Broke some golden rules the good book said I should stick to
Does that make me rotten to the core?

The whispers in the pews, well they ain't praying for me and you
How can a place so sacred be filled with so much hatred?

But me and Jesus, we're as thick as thieves
If you don't believe us, maybe you just don't believe
They may say a girl like me is going straight to Hell
Oh but I think Jesus can love this Jezebel

I met my best friend, Jack, in Sunday school
Singing 'bout the B-I-B-L-E
Learning 'bout the love that purifies each one of us
And in His eyes, we are free

But Jack grew up and fell in love with Adam
Pretty soon the word sure got around
Those folks who agreed that Adam should love Eve
Well they kicked Jack and Adam to the ground

Yeah, the whispers in the pews, they ain't praying for me and you
If we're covered by His blood then who are they to judge?

Yeah 'cause Jack and Jesus, they're as thick as thieves
If you don't believe us, maybe you just don't believe
They may say, straight or gay, we're going straight to Hell
Oh but I think Jesus can love this Jezebel (ooh, ooh)

This little light is mine
So let me let it shine
This little light is mine
So let me let it shine
This little light is mine
So let me let it shine
This little light is mine
So let me let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

Yeah, me and Jesus we're as thick as thieves
If you don't believe us maybe you just don't believe
They may say if I act this way I'm going straight to Hell
Oh, but I think Jesus can love this Jezebel (oh)
Oh yeah, I know Jesus loves this Jezebel
