Little Humble Church

Old man winter said hello
A voice that can often hurt
And a drifter looked down the road
Saw a little humble church.

Handcuffed to the Blizzard 
Trying to make his way
A few were there to great him 
Who would soon teach him to pray 

The drifter said "I'm new in town
I'm only passing through 
That storm outside is hateful
Can I be here with you? “

Then God in heaven looked below 
Saw a little humble church
How often does he see us there
Helping those who hurt?
