Red Letters

V1
Matt wasn't looking for fortune
He needed something to eat
I passed him again this morning
Been unemployed for weeks
But I drove on quickly
Pretending that I did not see

V2
Sam and her mother are thirsty
They call their shelter a home
Their clothes are worn and they're dirty
Their feeling lost and alone

But I drove on quickly
Pretending that I did not see

You know the story. We've heard it before
Red letters tell us, we've got to give more
The world is waiting, it's searching for hope
Let's let our actions speak louder than words
All in red letters

V3
A stranger knocked on my window
He said he needed a ride
He's mom would soon be a widow
He wanted to say goodbye

But I drove on quickly
Pretending that I did not see

V4
Christine and I work together
We visit everyday
She shared the news of her cancer
I didn't know what to say

Then I read the letters God gave us
And shared them with her.

You know the story. We've heard it before
Red letters tell us, we've got to give more
The world is waiting, it's searching for hope
Let's let our actions speak louder than words
All in red letters
