He Knows My Name

No one would ever know it

By looking here at me

But I have something in my heart

They won't ever see

My clothes have all been tattered

I seldom get to eat

I'm just another lost soul

Wandering through the streets all alone

Some call me a hobo, a beggar and a bum

A lonesome highway drifter traveling by thumb

And I may never matter to anyone I see

But when I get to heaven, the Lord will welcome me

Through the gate

'Cause He knows my name

I've chased a lot of rainbows

And watched the colors fade

A prisoner of my own greed

Threw my dreams away

But my heart belongs to Jesus now

He came to set me free

And when I get to heaven, I know he'll welcome me

Through the gate

Some call me a hobo, a beggar and a bum

A lonesome highway drifter traveling by thumb

And I may never matter to anyone I see

But when I get to heaven, the Lord will welcome me

Through the gate

'Cause He knows my name

Why do we judge one another this way?

Jesus died for each and everyone upon that day

He said He makes no difference between any man

So my prayer for you and me

As we walk hand in hand

Through the gate

Some call me a hobo, a beggar and a bum

A lonesome highway drifter traveling by thumb

And I may never matter to anyone I see

But when I get to heaven, the Lord will welcome me

Through the gate

'Cause He knows my name

When I get to heaven, I know He'll welcome me

Through the gate
