Each day they set me at the beautiful gate. While people pass me I sit here and wait for someone to share their cash with me so I can feed my family.
From morning till evening they come; parents, daughters and sons. They come to give the Lord some praise while I just sit here in a daze and say put change in my cup. Change in my cup. do what you can to help meet my need. If only I could walk it would sure help me to make my ends meet.
Day after day the years are the same begging at the beautiful gate. If I were able to walk I would. All I can do is sit here and brood, and say put change in my cup. Change in my cup. Do what you can to help meet my need. If only I could walk it would sure help me to make my ends meet. As long as I can remember that's how my life has been, just sitting at that gate waiting for someone to give me money, until one day when two men walked up and said look on us. I looked at them. When they said silver and gold have I none, my heart just drooped. But he said what I have... I will give you
He reached down and he took me by the hand. I could feel my feet getting strong. Pulled me up and he helped me to stand though I had not stood in so long. Well I took a few steps just to see if I could then my heart went ablaze because it felt so good. I ran and I shouted. I leapt in the air. A miracle showed me that God really cares. Praise God I can walk. I can go get a job I can finally make my ends meet. A change in my heart made the change in my cup obsolete.
