• King Of Sin (Leap of Faith OST)

JONAS:
Brothers and sisters, your sheriff is right when she warns you to beware. In fact-

SAM:
Where you going now Jonas?

JONAS:
-my past is far more disturbing than you can imagine.

I have robbed, I have conned, I have cheated!
I have duped, and defrauded, and stole!
I've lusted and lied, and let evil inside of my soul
Oh yeah!
I have hurt and betrayed and mistreated,
I've suckered and swindled and scammed!
I've done so much deceivin'
I've scandalized even the damned,
Yes indeed!
But like it or not, I'm exactly what you need.

I have run down the highway to ruin,
Fallen farther than Lucifer fell!
I've spent my life waitin'
To party with Satan in hell,
Yes sir!
And whatever misdeeds you been doin'
Whatever your conscience conceals,
I ain't judging ya, bro-
I'm just sayin', I know how it feels!

'Cause if think you've strayed,
You're only a beginner!
If you think you're cursed,
You still ain't truly been!
And if you think you're doomed,
Just look at me you sinner!
I am the king of sin!

Now I ain't up here braggin',
My life is a disgrace,
But lyin' in my bed one night,
I saw the good Lord's face.
I cringed beneath the covers,
Sure the Lord would strike me dead.
Let me tell you what our saviour said.
He said, Jack Newton,
I wipe away your shame!
I pardon all your sins!
But in return I'll take your name!
Go forth from here,
And be reborn as Jonas- meaning, my prophet!
And Nightingale- he who sings!
Tell all your fellow sinners
The forgiveness Jesus brings.
Then my life was clear as it could be.
I understood why God had called on me...

SAM:
Get those baskets back out there!

JONAS:
I'm the lowest of all of the lowly!
The baddest of all of the bad!
My criminal record is so friggin' checkered,
It's plaid! Oh yeah!
But if I turn from hellbound to holy,
Turn from the wrong to the right,
Well, who better, I say, to show
Others the way to the light?
So if you've lost a life,
I'll help make you a winner!
If you're down and out,
I'll point you up and in!
And if you need some proof,
Just look at me you sinner!
I am the king! I am the king!
I am the king of sin!

MARLA:
He puts on a good show, I won't argue that, but before you give him your hard earned money, ask yourself where it goes. Look at the clothes he wears, the Mercedes bus he drives. Look at the legal bills he incurs. Ask yourself, if he's truly a man of God, why he needs your money at all.

JONAS:
Now you judge me falsely, Sister Marla. That money is not for me. Or my choir. The haven't seen a dime in month, isn't that right, Angels? This isn't about making money. Oh no, there's far easier ways to do that! This is about saving souls, this is about eternal life, about which side of the ledger you will be on when Judgment Day comes.

If you think that I can't lead you from damnation,
If you think that I'm a fraud who don't know jack,
This money here won't buy you your salvation...
So take it back!
Take it back!
Take every penny of your doubt money back!

MARLA:
Jonas Nightingale, you're under arrest. Anything you say can and will be used against you.

ISAIAH:
Wake up! Stop dancin'
Dancin' in the devil's shoes!
Folks, your souls are
Yours to lose!
It's time to use your
Heads and choose!
Yes, choose!
Stop prancin', please!

JONAS:
I promise you, tomorrow night, if this tent is filled, you will see a miracle!

ANGELS:
Your faith will set you free!
Dancin'! We're dancin' in the devil's shoes!
