about

This song is the lead single for "Shouting In The Wilderness"
Due for release on June 18, 2021

Its a fun gospel, soul song inspired by the street sounds of New Orleans and the Deep South. Written from the perspective that once your soul has been saved by Jesus then the worst that this world has to offer is as bad as you will ever experience.

lyrics

As Bad As It Gets

I’ve had fear that kept me up all night
Fear that shook my knees
Fear that gave me trembling hands,
enflamed anxieties
But The Lord, my strength, my happiness
Soothed all of my regrets
He said this will be as bad as it gets

I gave my soul to Jesus
And saw the burdens I had laid
Turn to ash then into clay
Then to the new me He has made
Well I’ve been as close to Hell
As The good Lord would ever let
And this will be as bad as it gets
This will be as bad as it gets

I’ve had lies that had a hold on me
Lies that made me bold
Lies that kept me suffering
And I’ve lived with lies I told
But I’m a child of The Father
With a son who paid my debt
And this will be as bad as it gets

I gave my soul to Jesus
And saw the burdens I had laid
Turn to ash then into clay
Then to the new me He has made
Well I’ve been as close to Hell
As The good Lord would ever let
And this will be as bad as it gets
This will be as bad as it gets

All my sins and all my wrongs
He found a way to use for good
He found a way to make me strong

All my sins and all my wrongs
He found a way to use for good
He found a way to make me strong

I gave my soul to Jesus
And saw the burdens I had laid
Turn to ash then into clay
Then to the new me He has made
Well I’ve been as close to Hell
As The good Lord would ever let
But this will be as bad as it gets
This will be as bad as it gets
