The Kirby Man
by Layton Howerton

Album: Listen to Our Hearts, Vol. 2

Behold I'm standing at your door, and I am knocking
But you reach up to remote your old Sylvania
Sit back and act like nothing ever strains ya
But I keep knocking, and you keep ignoring Me
And I wonder if you're ever gonna answer
When your life, your wife is riddled now with cancer

But I'm not a traveling salesman, no I'm not the Kirby man
I'm not here to fix your cable, and I don't work for Uncle Sam
I'm not a Jehovah's Witness, or Mormon missionary
I'm not here to ask if you're able, could you help Me please
I came because My Father sent Me
I came because you need Me

And I'm still waiting patiently
Though many times I've knoocked upon your door
As a child, a wild teenager, a young sailor
But you weren't listening, and time is fleeting
You've lived your life according to your own will
It's been a life of heartbreak, mistakes and constant ills

Chorus

Now there's no sin so great that I cannot forgive
No sinner who cannot look to Me and live
No brokenness that I cannot heal
No emptiness that I cannot feel

Chorus

Behold I'm standing at your door, and I am knocking
