Walking With Jesus
J. Spaceman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But Jesus took me in
And then a little light from heaven filled my soul
It bathed my heart in love
And wrote my name above
Just a little talk with Jesus made me whole
Now let us have a little talk with Jesus
He will hear our faintest cry
He will answer by and by
When you feel a little prayer wheel turning
Then you know a little fire is burning
Have a little talk with Jesus makes it right
I may have doubts and fears
My eyes be filled with tears
But Jesus is a friend who watches day and night
I go to Him in prayer
And He knows my every care
Just a little talk with Jesus made me right
Now let us have a little talk with Jesus
Let us tell Him all about our troubles
He will hear our faintest cry
He will answer by and by
Now when you feel a little prayer wheel turning
You will know a little fire is burning
Have a little talk with Jesus makes it right
Just have a little talk with Jesus makes it right
The song "Walking With Jesus" by J. Spaceman is about finding redemption through faith in Jesus. The opening lines, "I once was lost in sin, But Jesus took me in," suggest that the singer has moved away from a sinful life and accepted Jesus as their savior. The light from heaven that fills their soul implies that through their faith, they have found a sense of inner peace and fulfillment. The singer goes on to describe how prayer and conversation with Jesus helps them overcome doubt and fear, and that Jesus is the constant companion who watches over them both day and night.
The chorus encourages listeners to reach out to Jesus through prayer and tell him about their troubles. The phrase "a little prayer wheel turning" suggests that regular prayer is a virtuous practice that can purify the soul. Moreover, having a talk with Jesus makes everything right. The closing statement, "Just have a little talk with Jesus makes it right" serves as a reminder of the redemptive power of faith.
