There are no mystic jewels embedded in my prose
|
No moonlit haloed cherubs perched on my piano
|
No lyrics laced with pixie dust, no angels sing along
|
I am just a beggar who gives alms
|
|
Gold and silver have I none, but such I have give Thee
|
Borrowed words from the One who gave the gift to me
|
The pearl that I could never buy, this life, this dream, this song
|
And I am just a beggar who gives alms
|
|
I am not the creator, but a scribe with a pen
|
I'm recreating visions through a cracked and broken lens
|
Only One has ever seen the home for which we long
|
And I am just a beggar who gives alms
|
|
Gold and silver have I none, but such I have give Thee
|
Borrowed words from the One who gave the gift to me
|
The pearl that I could never buy, this life, this dream, this song
|
And I am just a beggar who gives alms
|
