Paroles de 'Spare Change' par Cross Movement

Chorus)
Picture me, no fortune or fame and I'm standin' in the rain,
In the middle of the pain, in the middle of the lane, with a cup,
With the sun beatin' plain, and I'm playin' for spare change.
I'm playin' for spare change. Can anybody spare some change?
Picture me, pat full, with a train, and I'm turnin' up the gain,
So you hear me when you came, one life, one name, one Christ, one claim,
Shame, people don't like people beggin' for spare change.
I'm beggin' for spare change. Can anybody spare some change?

Does anybody here got any spare change left?
I ain't beggin' for no, no Washington or a Jeff.
Maybe a John Wesley or a John Wycliff,
Modern Martin Luther for a new Protestant Ref (ormation).
Dr. King with a modern day dream, and a modern day theme,
We done got away teeeeam, it seeeeems,
We're losin' definitions and it's ruinin' our vision,
And how we view our decisions.
And the news, it's killin' me with the drama,
Fillin' me with Osama and Presidential dishonor,
We become fools! Who willingly will follow,
Men possibility, Hillary or Obama, comma,
We lost truth in this period,
And proof is so mysterious,
Losin' absolutes is so serious,
How we think we're gonna live when everything's relative,
Is anybody curious?
Without a standard of truth society's deranged,
That's why I'm up in your ear beggin' for change!

(Chorus)

Can anybody here spare some change?
Anybody not ashamed to go against the grain?
Opposite to the stream that's main,
Givin' up your own ambition just to change the game?
You say you love people,
But you already know it,
Stand against sin and suddenly you're homophobic.
You ain't even said nothin' but already did it.
Yep, yes sir, now you're a biggot.
Deranged and erratic, modern hate lover,
Extreme religious fanatic, intolerant of others.
BACK THAT UP, that's a lie from the pit of hell!
We serve Christ, who doeth all things well!
Jesus, please keep my kids,
It's hard to think I gotta leave 'em in a place like this.
Help us run and not faint,
No matter how bad you let it get,
Please preserve the saints.
I'll keep fightin' with my preachin',
Fightin' through my art,
Beggin' those that'll listen,
For some spare change of heart.

(Chorus)

Does anybody here got any spare change of view?
We don't need a lot, just a little spare change will do.
Does anybody have left any wrong or right?
Who's qualified to decide and dispute or fight?
Or does everybody decide what's right in their brain?
Now let me tell you why that just can't be sustained.
Hitler had a feelin' about how to rule and govern,
Who are you to say he shouldn't of put millions in the oven?
Idi Amin had his regime in Uganda,
What do you mean it's wrong what happened in Rwanda?
Now you see why it's so monumental when you choose,
'Cause you're gonna have to live with the consequences of your views.
God's Word shows ethics done properly.
Without it all men's methods are just mockery.
Law and truth done sloppily,
Morality minus God's view equals plain hypocrisy.
First was the Word, and the Word was with God,
And the Word was God. God is still in charge!
If two cars stood parked at a standstill,
Then you feel like your car is rollin' backwards and downhill.
But you can't tell which car slipped out of park,
So your eyes, they look for a building or landmark,
So you can compare the stationary to mobile,
But what happens if the whole building's startin' to roll now?

(Chorus)

Hey man, I'm just desperate. I wish we could spare the kind of change
That would return us back to the word of God.
In this day and time, we need it.
Much love to Dr. Zacharias, thanks for your wisdom.
