Beggar’s Feet
Parody of "Baker Street" by Gerry Rafferty
((Acts 3:1-4:22))

Windin' your way 'round the beggar's feet
Christ's in your head and He says stop and speak
Well, you're not a crazy flake
But you can't deny the Way 
And forget about everything
His Spirit in you makes you feel so bold
You got to go help His people
But you've got no gold
And as they just move along
They'll find out you and John
Serve a God who has everything

In truth, the beggar needs to know Jesus
His useless legs would leap and go places
If you'll try it, he'll try 'em out
And now the Spirit sets his feet tappin'
Just one more miracle you've seen happen
But you're findin' the Lord's shinin' down

Hey that was neat – there's a fight in its place
They took you to court because you preached on His grace
And they ask you what you did, you tell 'em who He is
And you talk about many things
They've got this thing about Christ and they're mad
They're gonna get after you if you talk like that
And they tell you settle down, keep quiet in the town
And forget about everything

But you know you'll always keep truthin'
You know you're never gonna stop provin'
That He rose and He can roll the stone
And when they make additional, new warnings
The Son of God will get you through, darlin'
'Cause you're sowin' till you're goin' home

Acts 4:19-20
But Peter and John replied, "Which is right in God's eyes: to listen to you, or
to him? You be the judges! As for us, we cannot help speaking about what we
have seen and heard."
