Beacon Light - Jesus Loves Me [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Hook 1]
Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to Him belong
They are weak but He is strong

[Verse 1]
I remember singing Jesus Loves Me at an early age
I was raised in church since baby words I learned to say
"Christ loves the little children"
Repeatedly in my mind
Red and yellow, black and white
They are precious in His sight
But I didn’t feel so precious on that day I got molested
In fact I felt more rejected, neglected, from His protection
And all these questions started forming in my mind
Am I gay? Am I straight?
‘Cause it continued
Often I felt ugly trapped and so ashamed
I never told a soul
Because I feared I’d take the blame
Nobody would ever know
It was my secret, my pain, my hurt, my shame
I couldn’t let it out
If I did they’d surely call me gay
And I remember when they did at the mall that day
I broke down in tears and simply walked away
‘Cause I remember all those times that other boy had touched me
And I started wondering if Jesus really loved me

[Chorus 2]
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
The Bible tells me so

[Verse 2]
To add to all that mess
Life at home became a stress
My parents fought more and more, divorce was what I read
But they said that they never would
The Bible said that it was wrong
So I had hope the Bible would keep them focused to push along
But eventually, the walls of marriage fell
Leaving me and my sister exposed to all this hell
Not to mention my older sister who saw another glimpse
That maybe the Bible couldn't help you when you tripped
I was ticked and I was would curse at God
My family stripped amidst the storm
My pictures ripped, memories gone
I shook my fists, looked up to God and said, I don’t believe in You You can’t be real, What is this trash?
Molested, I’m abused, my family too?
And now my Mom and Dad?
All this pain is bottled up inside, I see the rain, but where’s the sun?
All I see is clouds, and I can’t go on
But I’m a make it through
And I said to God, I’m gonna do it without You

[Chorus 2]
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
The Bible tells me so

[Verse 3]
Alone, that’s how I felt
Handling my problems by myself
I didn’t need God, or so I thought
But now I felt so empty
Indulging in the things they said would help me
Money, sex, and the party life
That’s how I lived
Education didn’t even help with my brokenness
I kept on being broken with the same pain
Same strain, running on one leg
Kept getting the same sprain
Crippled, looking at a glass lake
Seeing my reflection in the ripples of the wake
I was lost and confused, still bottling my pain
Took that bottle to my brain
Trying to make it go away
But I couldn’t, I could never escape
I realized inside only death was my fate, I’m so lost
Which way to go? I don’t know
All I know is that I need you God to take control
Please take control and change my ways
I need to know I’m saved - right now I’m feeling pain
And when I prayed that, I truly felt a change
It didn’t happen all at once but trust me things did change
I’ve never been the same since that day I called on Jesus
He changed my life, in exchange for chains He gave me freedom
I’ve been forgiven of every sin I’ve ever committed
Rid me of my ignorance Father and show me how to live it
I want to be like You, I want to be like You
I hate this evil inside me, provide me with Your truth
Because the whole world is surrounded with lies
I know because I bought into them, they blinded my eyes
So please renew my mind, renew my soul
Create a heart that’s clean inside me God and make me whole
I need You more than I need the breath inside of my lungs
Protect me from evil, I need Your presence to come
You are holy and amazing and your Spirit’s always pure
You are worthy of the praise because You are the only cure
Break down the walls of Jericho in Jesus’ name we call
Heal the Sodom and Gomorrah of our generation’s fall
God we need You we’ve been broken from confusion and abuse
Sexuality confused, pornography introduced
It was people who had done me wrong
But Jesus showed me how to live
Redemption is what the Gospel is

[Outro]
Yes, Jesus loves me
(Redemption is what is the Gospel is)
Yes, Jesus loves me
(Jesus show me how to live)
Yes, Jesus loves me
The Bible tells me so
