The Up-the-Sleeve songs    

Songs that move my heart enough that they need to be shared with others. I just happened to write some of them.

Grace

Let the words speak for themselves.

I see him at the table
wanting more cigarettes
and he's talking on the cell phone
to the woman that he loves
He doesnt know I'm watching
and he doesnt know I care
Just trying to go on living
giving his fish a blank stare

He calls to us on the street
says, "That's what I like to see
two young people in love
There isnt anything better"
So he gives us each a flower
says he doesnt want to be paid
A little bit of generosity
in an unexpected way

What do we do
With this gift that we've been given?
And will we share
This Love You have given to us
It has been given to us

I see you through history
teaching thousands on the street
Changing lives by the masses
Through every word you preach
I know that I'm not worthy
Cause every word says I'm not
But You give it anyway
Lord, it takes all I've got

So what do we do
With the gift we have been given?
Will we share
this Love You have given to us
It has been given to us.
