Such a Fool

Here I stand. I’m hearin’
somethin’ that my ears have never heard before.
And that seems strange
’cause the words in my head are so close to my heart.
Could it be that these are the words
that I’ve been searching for so long?

There are words of promise.
There are words of forgiveness for all that I have done.
And they tell me
that I can find it all in Jesus Christ the Son,
who died that I might have life.
He sacrificed Himself – forgiving.

You tell me don’t be such a fool!
Play it cool! Don’t you fall
for those words in your ear!
But being the fool I’ve always been,
I will give my life to Him.
’Cause He gave His love to me.


And as I receive Him
like a stone that has fallen, my heart is free at last.
The bondage
that held me so long has vanished with the past.
Through these words that met my ear
I found that what was missing was Jesus.

You tell me don’t be such a fool!
Play it cool! Don’t you fall
for those words in your ear!
But being the fool I’ve always been,
I will give my life to Him.
’Cause He gave His love to me.

But being the fool I’ve always been,
I will give my life to Him.
’Cause He gave His love to me.

But being the fool I’ve always been,
I will give my life to Him.

  1. Yes, they seem to work. At least on my desktop. Safari on iPhone can’t load them for some reason.
    Just one “cosmetical” correction: The right link for the lyrics of “Such a Fool” is http://www.amolsch.com/?p=173. The one you are using now originates from the “continue reading” link and results in the page scrolling to somewhere in the middle of the lyrics.
    Thanks for your effort in keeping that music available!

  2. My guess is that the browser version of the DropBox player requires Javascript, which is not available on the iPhone. It plays in Dropbox if you have the Dropbox app installed.You can probably delete all of these comments.:)

    As you can see they’re still there. This site is not exactly – well – highly frequented …
    So I keep your comments as a trophy 🙂

  4. I found your website with the name Amolsch. I enjoyed your poem. Thank You Jesus that He gave His life for me. My name is Stacey M. Amolsch
