What Would You Do
You see the hungry bum in the street.
What would you do
If he asked for something to eat
Would you walk on by?
As you look him in the eye
You see the leaders are blind and fake.
What would you do?
Be like the government and add to the hate?
Money and wealth, you have acquired
What would you do when your time has expired?
When the Lord asks...
Why he should let you in his gate?
What would you do
When you find out itŐs too late?
From Greed to God
A man walking alone in the morn
A man lonely and worn
His tattered old boots crunch the
new snow
His sad eyes looking for a place to
go
The wind blows its icy symphony
The man homeless as it is meant to
be
He had money and wealth, oh he had
it all
And yet to him it felt so small
He needed more, he needed God's
light
To Christ's arms he took flight
He gave up his stature to walk with
the poor
Worldly possessions he desires no
more
You may ask where it all went
To feed and clothe is where it was sent
God touched this man's heart to give
To do his small part for a hungry
child to live
He knows his soul turned from greed
and hate
He tells people his story before it
is too late
No longer judge the old man on the
street
Now a changed man with old boots on
his feet
No More
Police making people bleed
Politicians elected on greed
Can the country really be this
black?
God this government does so lack
Encounter a badge and you see blood
In this empire evil does flood
Tears flow from the dead manŐs eyes
The leaders only tell us more lies
Money and corruption starts these
fights
More will die for these God given
rights
The man with the shield no longer
defends
Justice they serve? No, he only
pretends!
