Power in Poverty

There's a power in poverty that breaks principalities
And brings the authorities down to their knees
There’s a brewing frustration and ageless temptation
to fight for control by manipulation
The God of the kingdoms and God of Creation and God of the nations
sent this revelation to the homeless and penniless jesus the son
The poor will inherit the kingdom to come
And 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 are we gonna fear when all that remains
is a God on the throne with a child in His arms and love in his eyes
And the sound of His heart cries… 'Take us away beyond religion, way beyond the minds of man.' "
