Beggar on the street

Do you see a lonely beggar on the street
He is not there of his own accord
Being unable to control the cards dealt to him, he sees no reward

I passed him by with a sorrowful sigh
Not willing to give him a helping hand
I have a feeling of great remorse. I do not understand 

Now Jesus is in my heart; he has opened my eyes to see
The blessing of helping others brings a great blessing to me

God’s joy I feel within can't be explained
Not being given from above to be contained

Being the hands and feet of Jesus while here on earth
No possible way to explain this incredible  worth

Thank you, God, Thank you, God, for forgiving me
 Eternal life and forever setting me free
