lyrics

I GAVE MY LUNCH
ccli#4093503

UP ON A HILLTOP
I SAW A CROWD GATHERED 'ROUND
TIRED AND HUNGRY
FROM WHAT THE DAY HAD SHOWN THEM

UP ON THE HILLTOP THERE HE WAS
BRINGIN HIS BRAND OF LOVE TO THEM
I COULD SEE IT IN THEIR EYES
HE'D TOUCHED THEM

ALL I COULD GIVE HIM WAS ALL THAT I HAD
SOME MEASLY FISH AND BREAD
WAS ALL I COULD GIVE

SO I GAVE IT AWAY
GAVE IT AWAY
GAVE IT AWAY
GAVE IT AWAY
GAVE IT AWAY
ALL I DID WAS GIVE IT AWAY

UP ON THE HILLTOP THERE WE WERE
STARING IN DISBELIEF
AT HIS OVERCONFIDENCE SO IT SEEMED TO ME
"HOW COULD ONE MAN'S HANDS
HOLD FOOD FOR ALL TO EAT"
I STOOD IN DISBELIEF

ALL I COULD GIVE WAS ALL THAT I HAD
MY MEASLY WORDS

ALL I DID WAS GIVE IT AWAY
GIVE IT AWAY
GIVE IT AWAY
GIVE IT AWAY
GIVE IT AWAY
GIVE IT AWAY
ALL I DID WAS GIVE IT AWAY

TO MY SURPRISE I OPENED MY EYES
AND THEN

ALL THEIR EYES OPENED WIDE
SEEING ALL THE FOOD AT HIS SIDE
FOR ALL TO EAT
HE SAID COME AND EAT WITH ME
COME AND EAT WITH ME
COME AND EAT WITH ME
COME AND EAT

In the process, songs & stories R smithed & written, friendships & families R stretched & shaken,stirred & strengthened. Genre-gender-class-past-death-defiers & town-crying demystifiers of mystery history lead these pacifistic, full-frontally ballistic missives. ... more
