She walks to the table

With an apron full of stains and asks

"Hey sir, what can I get for you today?"

I try to be polite, make nice conversation

But the food's no good

She doesn't even seem to notice me here

Her shoulders slumped

I see her tear stained eyes head back

Through the double swinging doors

Serving pies was not her goal in life

I leave a tip like I think Jesus would and smile

"Thanks a lot, have a nice day"

And I'm on my way

Jesus, what would You do?

Can You teach me how to love like You?

I wanna give You everything

But I've got nothing of my own at all

And if I give what I have not got

Will You fill me up and make me whole

I see him sitting by the side of the building near the street sign

He's got a sign saying "I will work for food"

He looks up with his glazed over eyes, says

"How 'bout a dollar for a veteran, a fellow American"

Empty stomach, empty mind, empty soul

Have I got the time to feed him a little broken bread?

No

Do I toss up a prayer as I walk on by

Or give him a tract and a weak fake smile

Or do I take the time to show him a little love?

Don't feel like I've got anything to give

So I guess I've got nothing to lose

Yeaahhh

I wanna give Youe verything

But I've got nothing of my own at all

And if I give what I have not got

Will You fill me up and make me whole

I come back a couple weeks later

See the same apron, same stains, same split end hair pulled back

She comes near and says

"Hey mister, your smile picked me up the other day

Just thought I'd say thanks"

Well I don't know why

It takes all my effort to try

Yeaahhh

I wanna give You everything

But I've got nothing of my own at all

And if I give what I have not got

Will You fill me up and make me whole

Make me whole

Make me whole

She walks to the table

With an apron full of stains and asks

"Hey sir, what can I get for you today?"
