Bread And Water |
One night he wandered into that old mission |
The one out on the poor side of town |
He really had no interest in salvation |
Just a place to lay his drunk ole body down |
He said, Ma’am I sure am hungry |
And I don’t have a penny to my name |
Lord knows I hadn’t worked in a month of Sundays |
I’m dirty, dead broke and so ashamed |
I need bread and water, ma’am that’s all I need |
Bread and water, and a place to rest my feet |
I ain’t too proud to get down on my knees |
For bread and water’s free |
She said, you’re always welcome at this table |
Said, brother you look like you could use a friend |
And there’s no need to pay if you’re not able |
Cause even Jesus was a homeless Man |
Well she opened up the Word and started reading |
About the Savior and the woman at the well |
Said it ain’t for me to judge this life you’re leading |
There’s only two things can save your soul from hell |
It’s bread and water, man that’s all you need |
Bread and water, and a place to rest your feet |
If you ain’t too proud to get down on your knees |
The bread and water’s free |
When he bowed his head he kinda choked up |
They spoke every word of Our Lord’s Prayer |
He closed his eyes and never woke up |
He’ll find bread and water waiting there |
Bread and water, man that’s all you need |
Bread and water, and a place to rest your feet |
Bread and water, man that’s all you need |
Bread and water, brother just believe |
If you ain’t too proud to get down on your knees |
The bread and water’s free |
Bread and water’s free |
