Well I Met An Old Man Walking Down The Street
His Clothes Were Torn And Tattered
And He Had Sandals On His Feet
I Stopped To Help Him And Lend Him A Hand
He Said, “I Love You So Much But You Must Understand That…”
Silver And Gold Might Buy You A Home
The Things Of This World
They Don’t Last Too Long
And Time Has A Way Of Turning Us Old
And Time Can’t Be Bought Back With Silver And Gold
Then He Said To Me, “Let’s Rest For Awhile.
For I Have Some Good News To Share With You Child.
He Said You Can’t Change This Ole World, But People Need To Know
That Our Dear Savior Died Here A Long, Long Time Ago.”
And Silver And Gold Won’t Buy You A Home
When This Life Has Ended And Your Time Is Gone
But You Can Live In A World Where
You’ll Never Grow Old
And Things Can’t Be Bought There With Silver And Gold
His Eyes Shone Like Diamonds
And His Smile Was Heaven Sent
His Hair Was Long And Flowing
And His Back Was Slightly Bent
And I Knew He Knew It Cause That Day I Changed
And As I Watched Him Walk On I Forgot To Get His Name
