• Bread And Water • | by Vince Gill
One night he wandered into that old mission
Run down on the poor side of town
He really had no interest in salvation
Just a place to lay his drunk old body down

He said, "Man, I sure am hungry
I don't have a penny to my name
Lord knows I hadn't worried, I marked the Sundays
Dirty, dead, broken soul shamed"

"I need bread and water, man, that's all I need
Bread and water, a place to rest my feet
I ain't too proud to get down on my knees
For bread and water's free"

She said, "You're always welcomed at this table"
Said, "Brother, you look like you could use a friend
There's no need to pay if you're not able
'Cause even Jesus was a homeless man"

Well, she opened up the Word and started reading
About the Savior and the woman at the well
Said, "It ain't for me to judge this life you're leading
'Cause only two things can save your soul from hell"

It's bread and water and that's all you need
Bread and water and place to rest your feet
You ain't too proud to get down on your knees
Bread and water's free

When he bowed his head, he kind of choked up
They spoke every word of Our Lord's Prayer
He closed his eyes and never woke up
And he'll find bread and water waiting there

Bread and water, man that's all you need
Bread and water, a place to rest your feet
Bread and water, man that's all you need
Bread and water, brother, just believe

It ain't too proud to get down on your knees
Bread and water's free, bread and water's free
