Among the Poor

I have found a song that I love, and I wanted to share the lyrics with you. I believe they tell of the heart of a loving God which is real and amazing.

Song: Among the Poor
By: Jeremy Riddle
Album: The Now and Not Yet

"Lord I've said I want to serve You

I've been so eager to love
And how I've longed so much to find You
Just to be where You are

But it seems I've forgotten
Where You are and what You look like
I hear Your words speak to me
As You remind me again

You're among the poor You're close to the broken
The least of these the lowest of the low
You're among the weak the hungry the thirsty
And as we do unto them
We've done unto You
We've done unto You

We are Your people we bear Your name
God we claim to seek Your ways
But have we neglected Your cries
And we have looked past Your face oh

You're among the poor You're close to the broken
The least of these the lowest of the low
You're among the weak the hungry the thirsty
And as we do unto them
We've done unto You
We've done unto You

(BRIDGE)
See My face (see My face)
Look in My eyes
Hear My voice
Don't ignore My plight

And I'm among the poor I'm close to the broken
The least of these the lowest of the low
I'm among the weak the hungry the thirsty
And as You do unto them
You've done unto me yes
You've done unto me yeah
You've done unto me"

Song of the Year, in my opinion... now, hurry and go to iTunes and get it. It's worth your time and money (no, I get nothing from this plug :-) )
