One night [C] he wandered [G] into that old mission,
One down [D] on the poor [G] side of town.
He [C] really had no [G] interest in salvation,
Just a place [D] to lay his drunk [G] old body down.
He said, [C] Ma'am, [G] I sure am hungry,
But I don't [D] have a penny [G] to my name.
Lord [C] knows I haven't worked in [G] a month or so.
I'm dirty, [D] dead broke, [G] and so ashamed.
[C] I need bread and water,
Ma'am, that's all I need.

[G]

[G] For even Jesus [D] was a [G] homeless man.
She [C] opened up the word, [G] started to read,
About the Savior [D] and the woman [G] at the well.
Said, it's not [C] for me to judge this [G] life you lead,
[G] But only two things [D] that can save your [G] soul from hell.
[C] It's bread and water,
Ma'am, that's [G] all you need.

[C] [G]
When he [C] bowed his head, [G] he kind of choked up.
They spoke [D] every word of [G] our Lord's prayer.
Then he closed his eyes and never woke.
But he'll find [D] bread and water [G] waiting there.
