A song about my love of feet. But not really. Based on Romans 10.
lyrics
Covered in mud, from walking down dirty trails,
Not too attractive, but they're missing just a few nails,
That mud is caked on and crackin' with a layer underneath,
My beautiful feet!
They're bitten and blistered, from the bugs and the sun,
And you know I tried to fight it, but the stench must've won,
They're beat up, and bloodied, they're quite a sight to see,
These beautiful feet!
Careful little feet wherever you go,
Be spreadin' His gospel from shore to shore,
Never lose focus on your main goal,
Cause that's what makes you beautiful...
The moral of the story, I'd like you all to see,
Your feet may be dirty, but Jesus can wash them clean,
They may be wretched, unsightly, and borderline diseased,
But if they carry the good news, all the senses will be pleased,
On mission, effective, those puppies prove to be,
Some beautiful feet!
