The Bible in the Drawer - The Farm Hands

The Bible in the Drawer Lyrics

THERE’VE BEEN MILLIONS MADE JUST LIKE ME BUT NO TWO ARE QUITE THE SAME
EACH OF US HAVE STORIES OF THE LIVES THAT WE’VE SEEN CHANGED
I ROLLED OFF THE PRINTING PRESS EIGHT YEARS AGO LAST JUNE
SOMEONE WENT TO GIDEONS PLACED ME IN THIS HOTEL ROOM
THEY SLIPPED ME IN A TABLE DRAWER BETWEEN TWO DOUBLE BEDS
MOST OFTEN I’M FORGOTTEN BUT SOMETIMES I DO GET READ
THERE’VE BEEN HUNDREDS EVEN THOUSANDS WHO’VE CAST A GLANCE AT ME
BUT THE ONES WHO TOOK MY WORDS TO HEART ARE NOW FOREVER FREE

THE POWER THAT’S WITHIN ME IS AVAILABLE TO ALL
SO WHEN SOME STRANGER PICKS ME UP I’M THERE TO HEED THE CALL
WHATEVER YOU ARE SEEKING I HAVE JUST THE ANWER FOR
IS PRESSED UPON MY PAGES I’M THE BIBLE IN THE DRAWER
THERE WAS A MAN FROM INDIANA LOST IN DRUGS AND DEEP DESPAIR
HE HAD JUST ABOUT HIT BOTTOM WHEN HE SAW ME LAYING THERE
HE PICKED ME UP AND STARTED READING ABOUT HIS PLACE IN HEAVEN’S PLAN
THE NEXT MORNING WHEN HE CHECKED OUT HE WALKED OUT A DIFFERENT MAN
A YOUNG RUNAWAY FROM DALLAS WHO HAD STOPPED IN FOR THE NIGHT
OUT OF MONEY FOOD AND OPTIONS WHEN SHE SAW ME IN THE LIGHT
JESUS OFFERED HER THE PEACE THAT SHE HAD CRAVED BUT NEVER FOUND
CALLED HOME AND TOLD HER MOM AND DAD THAT SHE WAS TEXAS BOUND
A BRAND NEW STORY WALKS INTO MY ROOM MOST EVERY NIGHT
THE WORDS OF JESUS LOVE ARE HERE IN RED AND BLACK AND WHITE
WHATEVER YOU ARE SEEKING I HAVE JUST THE ANSWER FOR
IT’S PRESSED UPON MY PAGES I’M THE BIBLE IN THE DRAWER
