I'd like to say I thought of this song at midnight, but it was not the case. My wife challenged me to create a song that would invite others to Jesus. I always hear my secular friends at work talking about how they find it hard to sleep at times, and I know it is the time when their minds are most active.
So this is where the song started - at midnight when your conscience is bothering you badly, but you can reach out and try Jesus, and he will put you back together again.
It took 100 Suno renditions to get the right tune, and I modified the lyrics seven times in a major way, but I am very happy with the result. Thank you Jesus.
I hope this song blesses you abundantly.

"Try Jesus" by KunzyPoet
It's midnight now,
it's way too quiet,
your thoughts are loud
Accusing you of fighting
like you did today
To get your way
And so, I say,
“Why do you fight against God?”
The stars shine bright,
But you just see
The blackest night
A darkness that should never be
within your heart
That tears apart
And so, I ask,
“Why not grasp the light of God?”
Try Jesus
Don't do it alone
Give God control
Give God your throne
To heal your soul
Try Jesus
With you he'll fight
Against the pain
Against the night
And make you whole again
Even now at midnight
Even now at midnight
Midnight again,
Covered by clouds
with piercing rain
Like anxious thoughts pounding
You awake from sleep
From your deceit
And so, I plead,
“Why not be honest with God?”
Lightning strikes,
and thunder roars,
You shake with fright
It shakes the doors and you're
Thinking that you'll surely die
This very night
And so, I cry,
“You can find your life with God?”
Try Jesus
Don't do it alone
Give God control
Give God your throne
To heal your soul
Try Jesus
With you he'll fight
Against the pain
Against the night
And make you whole again
Even now at midnight
The silent night within your soul
Is empty, cold and desperate for
God to make you whole again
His warmth and love will flood your heart
Don’t run away
Jesus is here
Won't you stay?
Try Jesus
Don't do it alone
Give God control
Give God your throne
To heal your soul
Try Jesus
With you he'll fight
Against the pain
Against the night
And make you whole again
Try Jesus
Don't do it alone
Give God control
Give God your throne
To heal your soul
Try Jesus
With you he'll fight
Against the pain
Against the night
And make you whole again
Even now at midnight
Even now at midnight
