"Good News" by Betsy Walker

Gettin to heaven
Not ‘cause I’m straight
Gonna live forever
Not ‘cause I believe that True Love Waits
Those things don’t save me

I know why Jesus loves me
It’s not ‘cause I pray
Yes, I am a Christian
Not because I vote the right way
That doesn’t save me

And I don’t understand why we spend so much time
With our passionate debates
And our picket signs
Cause how will they know how to change their lives
Till we hold up the answers
Instead of the crime

Jesus, He’s the lover of our soul
Only He can make us whole
He can change us
Clean us up, make us new
He’s the only way, only truth, Good news

I have found salvation
But not in the church
I have been made new, same as you
By a grace I don’t deserve

What can wash away my sin
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood

What can wash away my sin
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood of Jesus

He’s the only way
Only truth
Only way
Only truth

And I don’t understand why we spend so much time
With our passionate debates
And our picket signs
Cause how will they know how to change their lives
Till we hold up the answers
Instead of the crime
