| − | "Jesus Freak" is a well known Christian song by [[dc Talk]]. It is one of their most well-known songs. The song is about the 1970's generic term which was meant to insult [[Christian]]s. dc Talk frontman [[Toby McKeehan]] said that when he was looking up the word "freak" in the dictionary, he saw an entry that said "ardent enthusiast".

| − | What will people think
| |
| − | When they hear that I’m a Jesus freak?

| |
| − | Separated, I cut myself clean
| |
| − | From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
| |
| − | Been apprehended by a spiritual force
| |
| − | And a grace that replaced all the me I’ve divorced
| |

| |
| − | I saw a man with tat on his big fat belly
| |
| − | It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
| |
| − | It took me a while to catch what it said
| |
| − | Cause I had to match the rhythm
| |
| − | Of his belly with my head
| |
| − | ’Jesus saves’ is what it raved in a typical tattoo green
| |
| − | He stood on a box in the middle of the city
| |
| − | And claimed he had a dream

| |
| − | There was a man from the desert with naps in his head
| |
| − | The sand that he walked was also his bed
| |
| − | The words that he spoke made the people assume
| |
| − | There wasn’t too much left in the upper room
| |
| − | With skins on his back and hair on his face
| |
| − | They thought he was strange by the locusts he ate
| |

| |
