You walk around in riches..and are as happy as can be So is it any wonder that you cannot notice me I wear my same day clothing and I say my same day stuff Have you ever known the struggle or the endless nights so rough
Why condemn me for my sharing for my opening up to all
Would you rather me be silent pretend I have it all
I've listened to your stories of how you give and give
Yet you never even noticed that I haven't a place to live
You walk around in riches..and are as happy as can be So is it any wonder that you cannot notice me I wear my same day clothing and I say my same day stuff Have you ever known the struggle or the endless nights so rough
Oh you sing your hallelujahs; and you're present in the pew
But how often do you do it: what the good book counsels you
It's all for fame and glory and for the recognition too
Would you even know the value... of hiding what you do??
You walk around in riches..and are as happy as can be So is it any wonder that you cannot notice me I wear my same day clothing and I say my same day stuff Have you ever known the struggle or the endless nights so rough
We are the humble army.. the population of the poor
We see you walk, right by us; though, you pride yourself on more
It's all for gaining numbers for that army of "the elite"
But do you think that Jesus wouldn't love us on the street
You walk around in riches..and are as happy as can be So is it any wonder that you cannot notice me I wear my same day clothing and I say my same day stuff Have you ever known the struggle or the endless nights so rough
If church was something more than ...the four walls you embrace
Do you think that you would know it... would you think it a disgrace
If I told you ..you have it wrong now...that it isn't in those walls
That you'd find your Beloved Savior..He's not selective with His calls
You walk around in riches..and are as happy as can be So is it any wonder that you cannot notice me I wear my same day clothing and I say my same day stuff Have you ever known the struggle or the endless nights so rough
It's true..that.. I haven't bathed in: that pool you call the way
But, I carry Him, in my spirit: the One who made the day
And though, I cannot quote it.. that great Book you shout out from
I know that God is loving and has sent us His Only Son
You walk around in riches..and are as happy as can be So is it any wonder that you cannot notice me I wear my same day clothing and I say my same day stuff Have you ever known the struggle or the endless nights so rough
I cannot keep it, flowery...or sugar coat it for you
There's an enormous crowd of Christians, who have it wrong: so true
There's nothing in the Bible that says crowding into a church
Will bring you more salvation than those left outside... for sure..
You walk around in riches..and are as happy as can be So is it any wonder that you cannot notice me I wear my same day clothing and I say my same day stuff Have you ever known the struggle or the endless nights so rough
If I could give you anything from this poverty that I know
I would give you all.. my vision ...that can see beyond your show
I would speak to you the secrets that were spoken long ago
And show you that the Gospel wasn't meant to give control
You walk around in riches..and are as happy as can be So is it any wonder that you cannot notice me I wear my same day clothing and I say my same day stuff Have you ever known the struggle or the endless nights so rough
Where is the winter ..oh.. I'd like to know
Is there any cool weather..some sprinkles of snow
Oh.Where is she hiding ..is she anywhere around
Where is that cold weather..where can she be found
Springlike ..the feeling... oh..the air fools us all
Though dates say its winter..the spring sends the call
The Daffodils, the violets; the robins appear
Where is our dear winter is spring really here..
Thunders and lightnings and tornadoes galore
January is present ..but look out the door
The trees are now budding and seedlings do sprout
Oh.tell me what's happening..what's it all about
Like signs on the highway and warnings we read
The Heavens are calling.. oh people take heed
Tis time to be thinking: to be readying for all
We seem to have everything but we're on a recall
All of this fighting..and...all of this war..
Can anyone tell me: what it is all for..
Why can't we all settle without violence or hate
We're needing an adjustment.. it's getting too late
It's not only the bombing but the hateful remarks
That create so much tension and terrible sparks
You think it's the machinery and the bombs in the air
That is disturbing each nation .oh reader beware
For it's the lying and cheating and the uncaring heart
That creates all the tensions : the destructive start
Before ever a bombing ..or any war plane can fly
We have been destroying each other .. how awful ..oh my
So if we're going to try settling this tragedy of war
Our resolutions must start here at own country's door
For we're embarrassing each other before all of the rest
Condemning and fighting like a nation unblessed
