globeandmail.com Sonseed Article
Sonseed's Jesus Is My Friend has gone viral

This is a bi-weekly column about microcelebrities - the often accidental stars of the viral videos and jpegs crowding our inboxes.
A Christian band, apparently adrift in the late 1970s, rocks its way through a tight little ska tune: "He taught me how to pray/and how to save my soul./He taught me how to praise my God and still play rock and roll." Everybody's dressed in shades of blue, swaying stiffly, looking like elementary-school teachers cutting loose in the staff room. The men wear vests; their collars are too big. The guitarist, in grey suede shoes, thrashes away. "He is like a Mountie," sings the band's incredibly earnest front man in more innocent, pre-Taser days. "He always gets his man/And he'll zap you any way he can ... ZAP!" Read article

One Week Anniversary
Yesterday marked the one week anniversary since I first saw the video of "Jesus Is A Friend Of Mine." It's funny how a silly video can change someone's life...

Jesus Is A Friend Of Mine- Lyrics
Chorus:
Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is my friend
Jesus is a friend of mine
I have a friend in Jesus
Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is my friend
Jesus is a friend of mine
He taught me how to live
My life as it should be.
He taught me how to turn my cheek
When people laugh at me.
I've had friend's before
And I can tell you that
He's one who will never leave you flat.
-chorus-
He taught me how to pray
And how to save my soul.
He taught me how to praise my God
And still play rock-and-roll.
The music may sound different
But the message is the same
It's just an instrument to praise His name.
-chorus-
Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is a friend of mine
Once I tried to run
I tried to run and hide.
But Jesus came and found me
And He touched down inside.
He is like a Mountie
He always gets His man
And He'll zap you any way He can.
Zap!
-chorus-
He loves me when I'm right
He loves me when I'm wrong
He loves me when I waste my time
By writing silly songs.
He loves me when I'm quiet
And I have nothing to say
He'll love me when I'm perfect
If I ever get that way!
-chorus-
Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is my friend
Jesus is a friend of mine
I have a friend in Jesus
Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is my friend
Jesus is a friend of mine
He taught me how to live
My life as it should be.
He taught me how to turn my cheek
When people laugh at me.
I've had friend's before
And I can tell you that
He's one who will never leave you flat.
-chorus-
He taught me how to pray
And how to save my soul.
He taught me how to praise my God
And still play rock-and-roll.
The music may sound different
But the message is the same
It's just an instrument to praise His name.
-chorus-
Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is a friend of mine
Once I tried to run
I tried to run and hide.
But Jesus came and found me
And He touched down inside.
He is like a Mountie
He always gets His man
And He'll zap you any way He can.
Zap!
-chorus-
He loves me when I'm right
He loves me when I'm wrong
He loves me when I waste my time
By writing silly songs.
He loves me when I'm quiet
And I have nothing to say
He'll love me when I'm perfect
If I ever get that way!
-chorus-
I'm A Sonseedaholic!
I saw this video in my Sunday School class this Sunday, and I immediately liked the song. When I got home from church I Googled Sonseed and found that I could download their album for free, so I did. I listened to it, and determined "Jesus Is A Friend Of Mine" is the best song. I listen to it at least 20 times a day. I have decided that makes me a Sonseedaholic.
Hits:
