Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If I could have a beer with Jesus
Heaven knows I'd sip it nice and slow
I'd try to pick a place that ain't too crowded
Or gladly go wherever He wants to go
[Verse 2]
You can bet I'd order up a couple tall ones
And tell the waitress to put 'em on my tab
I'd be sure to let Him do the talkin'
Careful when I got the chance to ask
[Verse 3]
Tell me, how'd You turn the other cheek
To save a sorry soul like me?
Do You hear the prayers I send?
What happens when life ends?
And when You think You're comin' back again?
Yeah, I'd tell everyone, but no one would believe it
If I could have a beer with Jesus
[Verse 4]
If I could have a beer with Jesus
Yeah, I'd put my whole paycheck in that jukebox
And I'd fill it up with nothin' but the good stuff
And sit somewhere we couldn't see a clock
[Verse 5]
And ask Him how'd You turn the other cheek
To save a sorry soul like me?
Have You been there from the start?
How'd You change a sinner's heart?
And is Heaven really just beyond the stars?
Yeah, I'd tell everyone, but no one would believe it
If I could have a beer with Jesus
[Verse 6]
Now He can probably only stay for just a couple rounds
But I hope and pray He's stayin'
Till we shut the whole place down
[Verse 7]
Ask Him how'd You turn the other cheek
To save a sorry soul like me?
What's on the other side?
Is Mom and Daddy alright?
And if it ain't no trouble, tell them I said hi
Yeah, I'd tell everyone, but no one would believe it
If I could have a beer with Jesus
Yeah, I'd tell everyone, but no one would believe it
If I could have a beer with Jesus
