Jesus Freak Lyrics

Artist: DC Talk
Album: Jesus Freak

[What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus Freak?
What will people do
When they find that's it's true?]

Separated, I cut myself clean
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
And a grace that replaced all the me I've divorced

I saw a man with tat on his big fat belly
It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
It took me a while to catch what it said
Cause I had to match the rhythm
Of his belly with my head
'Jesus Saves' is what it raved in a typical tattoo green
He stood on a box in the middle of the city
And claimed he had a dream

(chorus)
What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak
What will people do when they find that it's true
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguising the truth

Kamikaze, my death is gain
I've been marked by my Maker
A peculiar display
The high and lofty, they see me as weak
Cause I won't live and die for the power they seek

There was a man from the desert with naps in his head
The sand that he walked was also his bed
The words that he spoke made the people assume
There wasn't too much left in the upper room
With skins on his back and hair on his face
They thought he was strange by the locusts he ate
The Pharisees tripped when they heard him speak
Until the king took the head of this Jesus freak

(repeat chorus 2x)

People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger
People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger

(repeat chorus 2x)

What will people think
[What will people think]
What will people do
[What will people do]
I don't really care
[What else can I say]
There ain't no disguising the truth
[Jesus is the way]

by Paige on 5/10/2008 6:06pm This is Coolest song ever it has a very good message to it and i dont really care if people label me a Jesus Freak ever because i go to a private school and am very proud of it
by God's child on 5/14/2008 4:40pm i love this song! its awsome!!
by Jesus Freak on 5/17/2008 8:12pm I love this song! It's so true! It make me remember that I shouldn't be ashamed of what I believe in and that's Jesus. "People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger that my best friend was born in a manger?"
by Ruth on 5/28/2008 10:49pm I think this is a great song, it takes a strong person of faith to really be open and say what they feel spiritually. and not worry about what others think!!
by Tiffany on 5/29/2008 2:31pm This is my favorite song from my favoriteband ever. I love DC-Talk
by Josh on 6/2/2008 9:23am I like the song but I have heard it like 100 times and by then it gets a bit boring :)
by Jacqui on 6/3/2008 1:36am This is a fantastic song and testimony. The basic, repetition and stoic style of the refrain, "What will people think when they hear that I'm a Jesus Freak?" speaks about how believers often think the same phrase over and over, and worry about what people will think. Believers often don't share their faith or let others know their beliefs for fear of persecution, judgement, ridicule, etc. But the artists and song answer the question - who cares? Who are you, really? Are we really so self absorbed that we worry about what people will think? It's none of your business what someone else thinks of you. But, it can be scary because there is so much controversy and persecution around the name Jesus in this world. But we are called to boldness, like the Disciples and so many others before us. Yep, I'm a freak.
by twan on 7/18/2008 12:00pm cool
by Mandy on 7/23/2008 4:13pm This song is AWESOME! I think that it's cool that they talk about John the baptist in the 2nd verse. And, the song is SO true! I will not be ashamed of the gospel. Rock on DC Talk!
by walunir jamir on 9/21/2008 12:31pm nice lyric
by matt patterson on 10/6/2008 11:19am i like this song
by Jesus freak 4eva!!! on 3/3/2009 9:17pm This song is awesome!! Alot of my friends are changing since some stayed at private school, went to public school, or me homeschooled. Even though most of them go to a Christian school... I'm the only one that really got labeled Jesus freak. Along with the lame homeschool jokes they'll sorta talk for me about how Christian I am. If they do that, I always have the "I thought you were Christian too" they'll admit but I get labeled. Being a Jesus freak is the best thing I have EVER done or will do. Thanks for the song DC talk!
by Becky Hutchins on 3/21/2009 11:27am I'm a Pastors daughter so I get called a "Jesus Freak" all the time! I believe it to be a compliment. I have many un-Christian friends that I'm trying to reach for the Lord so this song keeps me going. btw i saw Toby Mac and DC Talk live last week and they rocked!!!! JESUS FREAK IS MY FAVE!!!!!
