Jennifer Life song:
Orange jailhouse jumpsuit
By Nicky Moran April 2018
Verse 1:
Addiction stalked the growing years
with a child I was abandoned
many secrets, we’re in the dark
so I trusted dealers and bandits
Verse 2:
But I knew I had to come clean
False charges had tailed me
A bruising for resisting the law
“Protectors” had failed me
Chorus A:
The minister called out “Come and be saved”
I gave my heart to Christ, my heart to Christ
there in my orange jailhouse jumpsuit
The minister called out “Come and be saved”
God’s Word came to life, I came to life
there in my orange jailhouse jumpsuit
Verse 3:
Had to let go anger and blame
The past caught up with me
Inside the wire, losing my soul
so I chose His path freely
Verse 4:
Led by the most Holy Ghost
In Spirit and in Word
Out with the old, in with the new
no eye seen, nor ear heard
Chorus A:
The minister called out “Come and be saved”
I gave my heart to Christ, my heart to Christ
there in my orange jailhouse jumpsuit
The minister called out “Come and be saved”
God’s Word came to life, I came to life
there in my orange jailhouse jumpsuit
Bridge:
May the struggles I have overcome
Be of help you to you
May the Light of the world lead your ways
To help you, help you like others helped me
To help you, help you like others helped me
To Help you, help you like others helped me
Chorus A:
The minister called out “Come and be saved”
I gave my heart to Christ, my heart to Christ
there in my orange jailhouse jumpsuit
The minister called out “Come and be saved”
God’s Word came to life, I came to life
there in my orange jailhouse jumpsuit
Chorus Bx2:
Now He’s made me a prayer house director
Leading teams to the heart of Christ, the heart of Christ
With a story to tell around the world
