BEGGAR WOMAN- Sung & Composed by Moshe Yess- God is Alive and Well in Jerusalem

VERSE 1:
Today, she was sitting on the street
Sorrow in her eyes, a tin can at her feet,
Holes in her stockings and holes in her shoes
She’s an old beggar woman, no stranger to bad news.

I reached in my pocket to give a bill or two
In my heart I was trying to think what I could do,
She thanked me for the money, I turned to walk away
But I waited for a moment as she began to say.

CHORUS 1:
G-d loves the widow and the orphan and the blind
The old and the needy who haven’t got a dime,
G-d loves the sickly, in His eyes we’re all the same
And G-d will love you too, you just call upon His name.

VERSE 2:
I don’t know where she came from, I don’t know her at all
The wrinkles on her face, they kinda tell it all,
So reach in your pocket and give a bill or two
And you can thank G-d in Heaven that the beggar isn’t you.

CHORUS 2:
G-d loves the widow and the orphan and the blind
The old and the needy who haven’t got a dime,
G-d loves the sickly, in His eyes we’re all the same
And G-d will love you too, you just call upon His name,
And G-d will love you too, you just call upon His name.
