lyrics

I put my hand in Jesus' hand
Together we did stride
2 sets of footprints in the sand
My whole life side by side
But when I stopped and looked behind me
Just one set of footprints did I see
In anger I demanded
"Jesus, why did you abandon me?"

He said, "Son you do not understand
There's just one set of footprints there it's true
But you were not abandoned
You were so weak I had to carry you"

So where was Jesus when the priests were fucking children?
And help was out of reach?
You can blame it all on me
Jesus was with me down at the beach

Now if I'd been a stronger man
and not taken up all Jesus' time
He'd have been free to intervene
When the church was covering up the crime
While they were shuffling pedophiles
Around from town to unsuspecting town
Jesus had his hands full
And apparently he couldn't put me down

So where was Jesus when the priests were fucking children?
And help was out of reach?
You can blame it all on me
Jesus was with me down at the beach
