What are they talking about on the Jesus Freak song?
The term "freak" typically relates to a person who has withdrawn from the norm and in this case is following after a particular obsession. The term Jesus Freak was originally used as a derogatory term for seemingly over zealous followers of Jesus Christ. An interesting note is that the term "Christian" was also originally used as a derogatory term (meaning "little Christs") used for Christ followers. The one singing the song is acknowledging his withdrawing from the norm to wholeheartedly follow Christ. He choosing not to be concerned with "what people will think, or what people will do" because the fact is that "there ain't no disguising the truth". The truth being that he is indeed a Jesus Freak. - Jesus Freak, Bradley Price
