Lyrics:
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 some time
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 night
Khaki pants and a polo shirt
Boy I put up a fight
She said, son, one day you’ll thank me for having God in your life
And 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
Oh

I've got 3 of my own now
Trying to raise them up right
My oldest is 15 and I remember what that was like
Trying to deal with the drama, trying to figure out the questions in life
I’ve been looking for a way to show him how to make it alright

Then he walked in my room while I was saying my prayers the other night
He said I’ll come back later, I can tell you got a lot on your mind
I said it’s not an interruption, 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
Oh
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

There’s no wrong way to do it
There’s no bad time to start
It don't have to sound pretty
Just tell him what’s on your heart
Cause it’s not a religion
It’s more like a friendship
Just talk to your Father
Like you are his kid

Just start talking to Jesus
Just start talking to Jesus
You can talk to Jesus
Whenever you like

Just start talking to Jesus
Just start talking to Jesus
Just keep talking to Jesus
For the rest of your life

    Greatest man in history, had no servants, yet they called him Master. Had no degree, yet they called him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called him Healer. He had no army, yet kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today. His name is Jesus.

    I suffered from infertility tried for so many years to get pregnant. I always prayed to god to please bless me with a child. I was watching a mother play with her son on tik tok one day I cried and screamed to god "god please give me a child!!!!!" that same day something in me told me to take a pregnancy test... it came back positive! I couldnt believe it I was in tears and in shock!I took more pregnancy tests and they all came back positive! A week after I found out I was pregnant I found a cross necklace a few steps away from where I worked at and I then knew it was really god all along and never left my side. I now have a 11 month healthy beautiful baby boy. He's turning 1 in a few days! ❤ God is good!
  • In a prison cell, I had hit rock bottom, as I read so many of the comments, it made me think of how much He loves us. And how he will meet us wherever we are! So I got down on my knees on that cold hard floor, and started talking to Jesus! Now I been clean 6 years, He gave me a godly wife, I play the bass, sing, and I’m also an evangelist. And for the first time in my life, I have held a job for 6 years, when i was in addiction, I never held one more Then a year. Talking to Jesus is what saved my life

  • @MrSkinnerdee
    My wife wakes up most days in the morning to talk to Jesus and it used to bother me, but thanks to her persistence and endurance she helped me grow as a husband and most importantly as a son of God and now I’m also talking to Jesus...
