Jesus Took the Outlaw Out of Me

Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson (January 21, 1824 – May 10, 1863) was a Confederate general during the American Civil War, and one of the best-known Confederate commanders after General Robert E. Lee. His military career includes the Valley Campaign of 1862 and his service as a corps commander in the Army of Northern Virginia under Robert E. Lee. Confederate pickets accidentally shot him at the Battle of Chancellorsville on May 2, 1863. The general survived with the loss of an arm to amputation, but died of complications from pneumonia eight days later. His death was a severe setback for the Confederacy, affecting not only its military prospects, but also the morale of its army and of the general public. more »

Jesus took the outlaw out of me praise God
He took my hand and led me out of darkness
All the things I thought I needed  I don't care about no more
Since Jesus handed me the key that unlocks heaven's door 
 
I once worked for the devil you know I played in his hand
I helped promote his heartache with a guitar in my hand
I laid down with his women took his pills and drank his booze
Reached the top of his kingdom  then Jesus I found you
 
What a wonderful feeling since my Savior came in
To a heart that had never really known a true friend
All my sins are forgiven cast aside and left behind
Jesus gave me a new life  and I'm gonna let it shine
 
Jesus took the outlaw out of me praise God
He took my hand and led me out of darkness
All the things I thought I needed  I don't care about no more
Since Jesus handed me the key that unlocks heaven's door
 
Jesus took the outlaw out of me oh Lord
