Lyrics
Out in the cold in the city, it’s time to go stand in the line There’s a serious hunger within me, an ill-feeling that’s hard to define As I stand by the doorway, I see all the others in need And then I stare as I wonder, how could this happen to me? In the warmth of the mission, I take my seat in the room There are some baskets of clothing, and some tables of donated food As I sit with the troubled, a woman calls out my name And then she shares of a future, of hope and a heavenly rain I’ve looked down from the mountain, I’ve looked up from below I’ve known an unshackled spirit, I’ve known a desperate soul Looking back on the broken, picking up all the pieces Was a hand that was caring, and a heart that releases
