Beggar
by Bob Bennett

Album: Matters of the Heart

Well, I'd like to point my finger
But I know that wouldn't do
It didn't mean that much to me
It won't mean that much to you

But if I'm right in my reasoning
And we're not so far apart
Then we both know how it feels
To be starving in the heart

Well I'm a beggar
But I know where there's bread
I'm a beggar
But now I'm so well fed
If you're hungry
Why will you suffer instead
Won't you come along
Come along

Well don't let these fancy clothes fool you
I was wearing filthy rags
Just a short time ago
I thought I was covered
But I was naked in God's sight
I didn't know
There was Someone ...
There was someplace else
I could go

There's a table ready and waiting
There's a place that is set just for you
You can feast for a lifetime of living
It can happen if you want it to
If you want it to

Tell me why
Why won't you come along?
It can happen if you want it to
