Pass On By

Wake up every morning
Get dressed to start my day
Eaten half my breakfast
But had forgotten how to pray

Looking for my car keys
As my Bible smiles at me
Just found my missing wallet
But I've forgotten how to read

So I ride on down the highway
Advertisements catch my eye
Mostly saying, "Need food, God bless"
As I just pass on by

Pull up to the stop light 
Man begging for some change
The radio gets louder
As I look the other way

When you were chomping Cheerios
Did he have something to eat?
And when you were buying those fancy clothes
Did he have shoes on his feet?

And when you passed on by in your fancy car
Did you see his hopeless stare?
And when you pass by on the other side
Did you forget how to care?
