Lyrics
[Short-instrumental intro]
[Verse 1]
On a wild midnight down on Main Street,
Where the blues ring loud and true,
There’s a man with a broken heart,
Feelin' lost and feelin' blue.
He's the one on the corner,
Beggin’ for a dime or two,
But little did he know,
Redemption was comin' through.
[Verse 2]
One night as he was cryin',
Staring at the city lights,
He saw a girl so pretty,
Her presence shinin' bright.
She said, "I bring you hope, my friend,
Gonna make things right."
In her hands, she held a Bible,
And she held it tight.
[Chorus]
Yeah, she held the Bible, held it tight,
Read it every day and every night.
She knew Jesus left the ninety-nine,
So that the one would be just fine.
[Bridge]
As the days turned into nights,
He found his faith, found his light.
With her words, he learned to stand,
A broken heart now in command.
[Verse 3]
Now he walks that same ol' Main Street,
But he’s not beggin' for a dime.
With a guitar in his hand,
He’s playin' music so divine.
He sings of hope and redemption,
Of a love that never dies,
All because a stranger saw,
The pain behind his eyes.
[Chorus]
Yeah, she held the Bible, held it tight,
Read it every day and every night.
She knew Jesus left the ninety-nine,
So that the one would be just fine.
[Outro]
On a wild midnight down on Main Street,
Where the blues ring loud and true,
There’s a man with a healed heart,
Playin’ songs for me and you.
He’s the one who found redemption,
Underneath those city lights,
All because a girl with a Bible,
Showed him the way that night.
those city lights,
All because a girl with a Bible,
Showed him the way that night.
[Fade Out]
