Wherever I Am

He was never really welcome there
Inside those temple walls
Didn’t waste much time preaching to the proud
And the Pharisees they couldn’t see
What the fuss was all about
And while those people followed Him around
But you could find Him with the cast outs
The murders and thieves
The widows and beggars knew His name
And the children came from miles around
Just to climb up on his knee
And He met them with a smile as if to say
Chorus
Wherever I go
I will love the least of these with all My heart
Whatever I do
I will meet this broken world with open arms
And rest assured
And wherever I am
I’m yours
I’ve learned that love goes farther
Than the four walls of a church
Somehow it found a sinner just like me
Now my eyes are open to the lost and lonely ones
So I ask the Lord to give me hands that reach
Chorus
Well they put Him on a cross
When He was only thirty-three
And they came from miles around
To curse His name
But I guess it’s kind of fitting
That He died between two thieves
After all they were the ones he came to save
In the end He gave it all to say
Chorus
