I am a Beggar

Today i was surfing the web and I saw a guy named Keith Moore preaching a sermon called, "I am not a beggar".. i could stomach only so much of his perspective about how people who believe in God should not beg.. which inspired this song by W. Keith Moore.. "I am a Beggar"...  i recorded this on my son's mac and i am not used to the advanced features of Garageband.. so, it sounds a bit different than what I normally do.. i hope you don't mind...skol!

when I wake up in the morning
I know I should hit my knees
but most days i just lay there
and let my worries get to me

you know what I'm saying
you know where I'm coming from
just because i know Who loves me
it don't mean I'm ready for home..

Lord I beg for your grace
Lord I beg for your mercy
Lord I beg for your forgiveness
and I beg you change my heart a little more everyday, today..

I am a beggar of the highest degree
stumbling, rumbling, through this world
like St. Paul  the king of sinners
not that much less lost than anyone

Lord I beg for your grace
Lord I beg for your mercy
Lord I beg for your forgiveness
and I beg you change my heart a little more everyday, today..

when a howling wind blows into this life I live
and I am broke and lonely and find myself unable to forgive
I hope i'll fall on my face and cry out to God and friends
that I need a helping hand, i may need someone to lend a hand

Lord I beg for your grace
Lord I beg for your mercy
Lord I beg for your forgiveness
and I beg you change my heart a little more everyday, today..
