I come like a beggar with a gift in my hand, I come like a beggar with a gift in my hand. By the hungry I will feed you, By the poor I make you rich, By the broken I will mend you, Tell me, which one is which? I come like a prisoner to bring you a key, I come like a prisoner to bring you a key. By the hungry ... The need of another is the gift that I bring, The need of another is the gift that I bring. By the hungry ... Take the wine that I bring you and the bread that I break, Take the wine that I bring you and the bread that I break. By the hungry ...
