Poverty

By Jason Upton

There?s a power in poverty

That breaks principalities

and brings the authorities down to their knees

And there?s a brewing frustration

and ageless temptation

to fight for control by some manipulation


But the God of the Kingdoms 

And God of the Nations

The God of Creation sent this revelation

Through the homeless and penniless Jesus the son 

the poor will inherit 

the Kingdom to come


Where will we turn when our world falls apart and all of the treasures we?ve stored in our barns can?t buy the Kingdom of God?

And who will we praise when we?ve praised all our lives men who build kingdoms and men who build fame but heaven does not know their names?

And what will we fear when all that remains is God in the throne 

with a child in His arms and Love in His eyes and the sound of His heart cry
