It hangs above my altar
Like they hung Him from a cross
I keep one in my wallet
For the times that I feel lost

In a wooden frame with splinters
Where my family kneels to pray
And if you listen close
You'll hear the words He used to say

I've got a picture of Jesus
In His arms so many prayers rest
You know I've got a picture of Jesus
And with Him we shall be forever blessed

It has been spoken He would come again
But we'd recognize this King among men
There was a man in our time his words shine bright like the sun
He tried to lift the masses and was crucified by a gun

No he was a picture of Jesus
In His arms, in His arms so many, many prayers rest
He is a picture of Jesus
And with Him we shall be forever blessed
With Him we shall be Lord forever, forever ever blessed
Oh, forever, oh forever blessed, forever, forever, forever

Now some days have no beginning
Some days have no end
Some roads are straight and narrow
And some roads only bend

So let us say a prayer
For every living thing
Walking towards the light
From the cross of a King

I've got a picture of Jesus
Oh, in His arms my prayers rest
You know that I've got a picture of Jesus
With Him we shall be forever blessed
With Him we shall be forever blessed
I think with Him we shall be forever for forever, forever blessed
Forever blessed ever blessed
