Tuning: one half step down to play with cd
There's a poor man with a bible preachin' barefoot in the snow
His clothes are torn and tattered but he says he doesn't feel the cold
The boys on Wall Street call him Moses
He told me his name was Jim
And he had a smile that seemed to come from within
A rich man passed him by said get a job, man, get a home
and he stood there and looked at Moses amazed at what he saw
Jim smiled and said "dear brother, I have all I need and more
and I have a job, I work for the Lord"
Chorus:
He said we're all livin in God's house
He sent his Son to build our faith on solid ground
and I thank the good lord Jesus, who takes away our sins
He said if you believe you'll dwell within, in God's house
Moses asked the rich man, "Does your house feel like a home
and are there waterfalls and rainbows
and mountains made of stone"
You can build your house of timber, bricks or even gold
but without the spirit, house is not a home
Chorus
There are footprints on the corner from his bare feet in the snow
they said that Moses died last Saturday
I guess his work was done
a man can gather Earthly riches but Jim had all he needed and more
He had faith, faith in the Lord
Chorus
In God's house
***Notes: I usually finger pick the verses and strum the chorus but as long as you
