Drawing Straws Lyrics

Drawing Straws lyrics

Poor man sits all alone



Counts about nothing he owns.



You see him there but you walk on by



His cup of change is running dry







His whole world is cold and gray



He didn't eat a single thing today



But that don't phase you at all



Cause you got your life together and you'll never fall.







(Chorus)







When I see through the eyes of the One who gave us His Son



And loves us all the same, I can't just walk away



Cause how could I defend when I've got so much to



lend So quick to turn my back to anyone that asks







You say he's just a thug



Hooked on alcohol and hooked on drugs



But you're human just like him



And when God gives you His grace



He know that you'll still sin



Don't close your mind so tight



Nothing you say will make it alright



And this person still won't have home



Except these streets that he's always roamed







(Chorus)







There's not much difference between us



We're all just drawing straws and he got the shorter one.



We see an ugly dirty bum



It's in your point of view and he's so beautiful seen through...







(Chorus)
