Stark/Spare Lyrics
Stark/spare and barely there The ghetto moves beyond the knowledge Or even consideration Of the upper-middle riddles That just don't care Stark/spare an' tell me who cares Slumming ain't the answer To the cancer poverty That so many of the poor Slip into degree Jesus walked among them Pausing to refresh Finally giving to the point of blood To share their emptiness Mark and Teresa Godspeed to you Suffering in love When you don't have too And God have mercy On the rest of us to 'Cause when we shut out the poor Lord, we're shutting out you
Jesus walked among them Pausing to refresh Finally giving to the point of blood To share their emptiness And we must walk among them For we can do no less Than what the Saviour taught us By his life and by his death For the truth is on our tables The crumbs are on our floors We must give while we are able Both Lazarus and our judge are at the door
