If I Give My Soul - Shaver
Down a dangerous road
I have come to where I'm standing
With a heavy heart
And my hat clutched in my hand
Such a foolish fool
God ain't known no greater sinner
I have come in search of Jesus
Hoping he will understand
I had a woman once
She was kind and she was gentle
Had a child by me
Who grew up to be a man
I had a steady job
Til I started into drinking
Then I started making music
Traveling with the devil's band
Oh the years flew by
Like a mighty rush of eagles
My dreams and plans
Were all scattered in the wind
It's a lonesome life
When you lose the ones
You live for
If I make my peace with Jesus
Will they take me back again
If I give my soul
Will He cleanse these clothes
I'm wearin'
If I give my soul
Will He put new boots on my feet
If I bow my head and
Beg God for His forgiveness
Will He breathe new breath inside me
And give back my dignity
If I give my soul
Will He stop my hands from shaking
If I give my soul
Will my son love me again
If I give my soul
And she knows I really mean it
If I give my soul to Jesus
Will she take me back again
If I give my soul
