Did I see Jesus today?
Did I see Jesus?
The man on the corner with pain in his eyes
The man on the corner hungry
Loins screaming out
From an empty supply
Hands cold and dry
Nails black
dirty from his head to his feet
and his naked back
Shoes?
oh he had none
But he did wear
A calloused pair
Walking some miles limping many
Talking to himself to keep his sanity
And drown our waters of loneliness
You say he is hearing voices
I say he is hearing the sounds of yesterday
Hanging on to hope that a miracle will come his way
The hearing in his ear is quite clear
Not blocked with the wax from miseries canal of fear
Waxed floors he has not known
But he still looks for a window to break into freedom
Out of prison streets stop sign bars.
did i feed jesus today?
did i feeed jesus?
Freed to feed to meet my brothers need
For necessary food to live
All I have to do is give
Just a little love
Just a little time
Just a little of this money of mine
Why should I?
how do I know what he will do with it
where will he go
I think he is lazy as a matter of fact
So I do judge him decide
That in not giving
I a justified.
I think he lied
He won’t take advantage of me
i don't know him
but I can read through him
Like next of kin
well not literally of course
we are no relation.
you know what i mean
just get the revelation
Hey!
Get a job
Get a life
You might even get a wife
This is life
This is my money
I worked hard for it honey
so what i have is not enough
i am sorry i have to go
i am in a hurry
did i see jesus today?
but it did not look like him to me
i did not feel his shakina glory
as what i smelled stifled out the sound
of compassion flowing from my heart
skepticism and love tore me apart
so being unsure
i reasoned all the more
maybe its for drugs that's all
or for some si[[ sip alcohol
intoxicated with sloth
like a moth he freeloading
how do i know i am not the catch of the day
insted of him working for a real pay day?
lord was that you?
i could not tell
help me to see not naturally
but witheyes that discern spiritually
did i se jesus today?
