A                   D                E                   A
Well you talk about important people that you say you know
               D             B                E
Presidents and superstars of big television shows
A                   D          E                        A
Well I know someone personally who's bigger than 'em all
             D            E                   A
And next to him your superstars look mighty small

A            D                  A                          D            E
And I have a talk with him each day and he's interested in every word I say
   A          D            A                 D   A         E           A
No secretary ever tells me he's been called away I talk to Jesus every day

A                      D                    E               A
Well now I don't think that I'll ever be in any Hall of Fame
                   D               B                E
And the social register of wealthy folks might drop my name
A                     D               E                  A
But my name is written in the book of life I'm proud to say
 D                             E         A
And that's all that really matters anyway

              D           A                          D            E
And I talk to Jesus every day and he's interested in every word I say
   A         D             A                 D   A         E           A
No secretary ever tells me he's been called away I talk to Jesus every day

I talk to Jesus every day
