(There Go I)
That "grumpy old man" down the street.
Even though you can't see his mountain,
It may be very steep.
Struggling over a range of adversities
With no hope of an easier path,
He needs your cheerful smile and "Good day!"
Not your scorn and thoughtless wrath.
Let him see Christ in your daily life
And take courage from your faith.
You may be the instrument God would use
To life his soul and change his fate.
So when you pass this poor soul tomorrow,
Stop and consider what could be --
But for the Grace of God,
What "grumpy old man" might be me.
.........Delores Adams
