Grandma use to pray out loud

By her bed every night

To me it sounded like mumbling

Like she was out of mind

She said, "boy this kind of praying

Is what saved my life

You oughta try it some time"

And 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 nights

Khaki pants and a polo shirt

Y'all know I put up a fight

She said, "son, one day you'll thank me

For having god in your life"

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 (come on, y'all)

'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 three of my own now

Tryna raise them up right

My oldest is fifteen

I remember what that was like

Trying to deal with the drama

Trying to figure out the questions in life

And I've been looking for a way to show him

How to make it alright, yeah...

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've got a lot on your mind"

I said, "It's not an interruption, oh no

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, yeah

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, yeah (come on)

What a friend we have in jesus

What a friend we have in jesus

What a friend we have in jesus

Oh...

What a friend we have

What a friend we have in jesus

What a friend we have in jesus

Oh...

There's no wrong way to do it

Not a bad place to start

It don't have to sound pretty

Just tell him what's on your heart

'cause it's not a religion, oh no

It's more like a friendship

So 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.

And now we're sitting at the ryman

An ordinary sunday night

These past few weeks have been heavy

Been hard to put on this smile

And I know that life feels crazy

The darker the day, the brighter the light

So just keep talking to jesus

The only way to end the fight.

What a friend we have in jesus

What a friend we have in jesus

What a friend we have in jesus

Oh (what a friend we have)

What a friend we have in jesus

What a friend we have in jesus

What a friend we have in jesus

Oh...

One more time, just the voices this time

What a friend we have in jesus

What a friend we have in jesus

What a friend we have in jesus

Oh...

Hey, can you help me please thank, mr. thomas rhett?
