Intro + Talking To Jesus (Live From The Ryman)

Grandma used to pray out loud

By her bed every night

To me, it sounded like mumbling

Like she was out of her mind

She said, "Boy, this kind of praying

Is what saved my life

You oughta try it sometime"

And now I know she was right

She was talking to Jesus

She was talking to Jesus

She'd been talking to Jesus

For all of her life

Mama used to drag me to church

Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights

Khaki pants and a polo shirt

Y'all know I put up a fight

She said, "Son, one day you'll thank me

For having God in your life"

Yeah, I know she was right

Yeah, my mama was right

'Cause now I'm talking to Jesus

She got me talking to Jesus

She got me talking to Jesus

Yeah, my mama was right

'Cause now I'm talking to Jesus

Yeah, I love talking to Jesus

And I'll be talking to Jesus

For the rest of my life

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus

Whoa

I've got three of my own now

Trying to raise them up right

My oldest is fifteen

And I remember what that was like

Trying to deal with the drama

Trying to figure out the questions in life

And I've been looking for a way to show him

How to make it alright

Yeah, then he walked in my room

And I was saying my prayers the other night

He said, "I'll come back later

I can tell you've got a lot on your mind"

I said, "It's not an interruption, no, no

You couldn't have picked a better time

'Cause I was just talking to Jesus

Come over and give it a try"

We started talking to Jesus

We started talking to Jesus

We started talking to Jesus

Whoa, yeah

And now he's talking to Jesus

Thank God he's talking to Jesus

I hope he's talking to Jesus

For the rest of his life, yeah

(Come on)

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus, oh-oh-oh

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus, oh-oh-oh

There's no wrong way to do it

Ain't a bad place to start

It ain't gotta sound pretty

Just tell Him what's on your heart

'Cause it's not a religion, no, no, no

No, it's more like a friendship

So just talk to your Father

Like you are His kid

Just start talking to Jesus

Just start talking to Jesus

'Cause you can talk to Jesus

Whenever you like

Just start talking to Jesus

Just start talking to Jesus

Just keep talking to Jesus, yeah

For the rest of your life

Now we're sitting at the Ryman

On an ordinary Sunday night

These past few weeks have been heavy

Been hard to put on a smile

And I know that life feels crazy

But the darker the day, the brighter the light

So just keep talking to Jesus

The only way, the truth, and the life

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus, oh-oh-oh

Yeah, what a friend we have

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus, oh-oh-oh

One more time, just the voices tonight

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus, oh-oh-oh

Amen, amen

Can you help me please thank Mr. Thomas Rhett
