You Did Not Have A Home
Lyricist:Rich Mullins
Oh, You did not have a home There were places You visited frequently You took off Your shoes and scratched Your feet 'Cause You knew that the whole world belonged to the meek But You did not have a home, no, You did not have a home
And You did not take a wife There were pretty maids all in a row Who lined up to touch the hem of Your robe But You had no place to take them So You did not take a wife, no You did not take a wife
Birds have nests, foxes have dens But the hope of the whole world rests On the shoulders of a homeless man You had the shoulders of a homeless man No, You did not have a home
Well, You had no stones to throw You came here without an ax to grind Did not tow the party line No wonder sight came to the blind You had no stones to throw, You had no stones to throw Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
And You rode an ass' foal They spread their coats and cut down palms For You and Your donkey to walk upon But the world won't find what it thinks it wants On the back of an ass' foal, so I guess You had to get sold
'Cause the world can't stand what it can't own And it can't own You 'cause You did not have a home
Birds have nests, foxes have dens But the hope of the whole world rests On the shoulders of a homeless man You had the shoulders of a homeless man No, You did not have a
Birds have nests, foxes have dens But the hope of the whole world rests On the shoulders of a homeless man You had the shoulders of a homeless man
And the world can't stand what it can't own And it can't own You 'cause You did not have a home
