Wooh oh You wear a badge honor, Your heart is filled with courage; You have rings around your color; No one would ever know that; you’re homeless He’s homeless, I’m homeless not hope less; Jesus is not home and I’m not alone For you have the freshest breathe; You have the sweetish smile; While all the while You’re just a child of God and your homeless; you’re homeless He’s homeless, I’m homeless not hope less; Jesus is not home and I’m not alone You’ve lost your job lost your house; Sold your car, live in the park; Yet in the alleys of the city, Stray dogs N cats share their meals with you; The world looks on gladly, to you so sadly; Good things you’re a widower; Good thing you’re alone (you’re not alone) Chances are people are hope in, Alleluia, Take baths in the sink, At Village Inn Walk to the park at sunrise Pick wild mint twixt the grasses Chew on them to freshen your breath; Don’t feel sorrow for him; He’s got Jesus all around and inside him; you’re homeless He’s homeless, I’m homeless not hope less; Jesus is not home and I’m not alone Now a house is a mortgage rented bill; Wood, drywall siding thrill; Home is where; home is where the heart is And if your heart is in Jesus Then you have a home You have a home; in Him is your home You are not home less You are not homeless but heavenly blessed you’re homeless He’s homeless, I’m homeless not hope less; Jesus is not home and I’m not alone
