GYPSY, TRAMPS AND THIEVES

Snippet

Is the one who uses the Lord’s name in vain or the one who drove him to it more guilty?

Dan Crick Elder

Scripture

And whoever receives one such child in My name receives Me; 6 but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea. Matthew 18:5-7 NASB

I was born in the wagon of a travellin' show

My mama used to dance for the money they'd throw

Papa would do whatever he could

Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of

Doctor Good

[CHORUS]

Gypsys, tramps, and thieves

We'd hear it from the people of the town

They'd call us Gypsys, tramps, and thieves

But every night all the men would come around

And lay their money down

Picked up a boy just south of

Mobile Gave him a ride, filled him with a hot meal I was sixteen, he was twenty-one

Rode with us to Memphis

And papa woulda shot him if he knew what he'd done

[CHORUS]

I never had schoolin' but he taught me well

With his smooth southern style

Three months later I'm a gal in trouble

And I haven't seen him for a while, uh-huh I haven't seen him for a while, uh-huh

She was born in the wagon of a travellin' show

Her mama had to dance for the money they'd throw

Grandpa'd do whatever he could

Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of

Doctor Good

[CHORUS]

[CHORUS FADES]

Sentence Prayer

Holy Father:

May my Yes be Yes and my No No

May my obedience not be spoken by me

But lived quietly for others to see Jesus

Holy Spirit willing or unwilling

I give you permission to search and destroy

Every hypocrisy in my life.

Help me grow true and straight

That I may never cause someone else to stumble

Amen!
