Cash, Johnny - Personal Jesus Lyrics






Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers,
Someone who cares

Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers,
Someone who's there

Feeling unknown
And you're all alone,
Flesh and bone,
By the telephone,
Lift up the receiver,
I'll make you a believer

Take second best,
Put me to the test,
Things on your chest,
You need to confess,
I will deliver,
You know I'm a forgiver

Reach out and touch faith
Reach out and touch faith

Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers,
Someone who cares

Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers,
Someone to care

Feeling unknown
And you're all alone,
Flesh and bone,
By the telephone,
Lift up the receiver,
I'll make you a believer
I will deliver,
You know I'm a forgiver

Reach out and touch faith
Reach out and touch faith
Reach out and touch faith

Reach out and touch faith

    Bravo from Serbia

  5. V.... Q....

    This was inspired by Priscilla Presley's book Elvis And Me, where she described their relationship. Martin Gore of Depeche Mode said: "It's a song about being a Jesus for somebody else, someone to give you hope and care. It's about how Elvis was her man and her mentor and how often that happens in love relationships - how everybody's heart is like a god in some way, and that's not a very balanced view of someone, is it?" From songfacts.com

    Can you imagine being Depeche Mode and your agent says Johnny Cash is own the phone.........

    J.... K....

    Apparently when Dave got the call he was like "When Johnny Cash asks to cover your song you say YES". Then Martin was hemming and hawing about doing it: "Well I'm just not sure..." He was right. Look how many bad covers of this soon followed...

    Hi dude/ у Джонни Кэш стиль - кантри?

  44. M.... I....

    SE LO FANARON!

  45. J.... M....

    Logró hacer mejor una canción muy buena. El mejor cover.

  46. M.... E....

    You know, I was barely able to hear the original televangilist reading from Depreche from this, as I'd listened to this far more before giving the other version a shot. It really goes to show the power of Cash's spiritual faith that I heard it more as "Jesus is a personal savior. He is the faith you touch." Rather than "I am your personal Jesus. Reach out to me like a golden fucking calf."

  48. J.... ....

    Me encantaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

  49. m.... ....

    Sounds weird with his voice singing it but I absolutely love the way it sounds on acoustic guitar wow

  50. B.... S....

    Talk about commercialized music, it's gross to think "eh, well, he added his sound to this." Yes, and no. He made this song sound like garbage by mocking it, for sure. Didn't add a whole lot to the song though.

  51. D.... F....

    reach out and touch faith....Amen

  52. j.... t....

    🌸🕊🌸

  63. M.... H....

    The original Depeche Mode recording is ironic: they may have been writing about a televangelist bilking his followers through "prayer lines". What Johnny Cash did that was so remarkable is that he looked at this song, and these lyrics, and saw something intensely personal and spiritual. Jesus IS personal to Christians -- He certainly was to Johnny Cash, who wrestled demons and his inner darkness all his life.


    I'm sure others have different opinions, but according to the fundamental teachings of Christianity we ALL have a Personal Jesus. And that was what Johnny Cash saw in this song.

  64. H.... S....

    he looks empty

  65. L.... R....

    Namaku Bento.
    Tinggal di real estate

  66. M.... S....

    I pray JOHNNY is in heaven. I want to hear him play in heaven PRAISES TO THE KING JESUS

    M.... S....

    The belief in heaven and hell is for weak-minded idiots. HTH.

  67. M.... Q....

  91. C.... N....

    The original is awesome, but damn, this is leagues over it! Johnny's voice was simply massive, it feels like it just fills up your entire skull cavity

  92. K.... S....

    Grave digger by Dave Matthews cover by Willie Nelson into Johnny Cash cover of One and this DM cover reminds me of the multi talented singer guitarist tennis pro biologist William Lang. Great tunes, great memories, guy, and all. Thx

  93. V.... H....

    Such а depressive vibe

    I’ll better play it myself

    V.... H....

    I believe it is more subdued than depressing, it is inspirational song Jesus loves you, He is the only one who truly cares. Reach out and touch faith! I would like to hear your version Valera :)

  94. m.... k....

    I wanted to like his cover but it falls flat and lifeless.

    m.... k....
