A Man With a Broom

Verse 1
In the corner of a room
An old man leaning on his broom.
I heard a lady say
Our church looks nice today
Then she said I can?t understand
Why we can?t find a better man
Someone who?ll clean and mop and dust,
Someone who dresses more like us.

Verse 2
Walking down the center isle
A young woman with a child
The heads all turned away
Not to acknowledge her that day
They said she had a troubled past
And here for sure she?ll never last
If they only realized
The miracle in store that night.

Verse 3
Then the woman rose to say
I?d like to join your church today
The pastor said I?m sorry mam
But there?s no sponsor for your plan
Then the door burst opened wide
It was Jesus, no one could deny
Welcome home child there?s lots of room
Just you and me and a man with a broom
