This week’s featured song story comes to us from Jon Foreman. We’re excited to share with you the story behind his song “Jesus I Have My Doubts.”
“I don’t believe in a God who’s afraid of my questions. I don’t believe in a God who’s afraid of me. Because a God that cannot be questioned doesn’t sound like God at all. Part of believing is to doubt. To Ask. To seek. To knock, and ultimately to find. This is a song that steps into the ring with God. Asking the big questions at the end of a long, difficult season. This song is my honest attempt to sing into my doubts. “ – Jon Foreman

“Jesus I Have My Doubts” Lyrics
Jesus I’m sorry bout last night
Jesus We both know I tried Jesus
Feels like my worlds in pieces
I know you got your reasons
But I’ve got my doubts
Jesus, I’ve got my doubts
When everything that’s right feels wrong
And all of my belief feel gone
And the darkness in my heart is so strong
Can you reach me here in the silence?
Singing these broken songs
Looking for the light for so long
But the pain goes on and on and on
Can you reach me here in the silence?
Jesus Has the world gone mad
Jesus What a week we’ve had Jesus
Feels like my worlds in pieces
I know you got your reasons
But I’ve got my doubts
Jesus, I’ve got my doubts
Are you there? Can you hear me?
Do you care? Are you near me?
Cause I’m scared and I’m weary
Are you there? Can you hear me?
Are you there?
I have my doubts.
