Once I felt like a lonely sailor
lost on a raging sea;
Then I picked myself up, and sat myself down
and had a little talk with me.
I was bound by chains of sin
and lost as a soul can be;
That's when I met Jesus
and Jesus set me free.

Jesus is my kind of people;
Jesus is my kind of friend.
Jesus is my kind of people,
And from now on
I'm gonna be
His kind of man.

I'd never known the kind of peace
some folks talk about;
There seemed to be a fire in me
that wouldn't quite go out.
Then Jesus came into my life
and erased my fears and doubts
And left me standing like a tall oak tree,
secure, serene and stout.

Jesus is my kind of people;
Jesus is my kind of friend.
Jesus is my kind of people,
And from now on
I'm gonna be
His kind of man.

Take it from a man who ought to know;
I am the living proof
Of the kind of seeds that Jesus sows
and what His love can do.
He lifted me when I was down and out
And He'll do that for you;
Just open up your heart to Jesus
And He'll be your friend too.

Jesus is my kind of people;
Jesus is my kind of friend.
Jesus is my kind of people,
And from now on
I'm gonna be
His kind of man.

Jesus is my kind of people;
Jesus is my kind of friend.
Jesus is my kind of people,
And from now on
I'm gonna be
His kind of man.
