THE STRANGER

He was a foreigner
In a strange land
He had no money
He was just a simple man

The town’s people feared him
‘Cause he spoke in simple truths
Things no one spoke of
Things they never could

To walk in freedom
Is to listen without judgment
Leave the man alone

He judged no one
His eyes always spoke in peace
But the people judged him
For what he believed

One morning in the town square
The people gathered to say
The stranger was not welcomed
He must go away

They said he was dangerous
For not accepting their way
They sentenced his greatness
For living his own faith

The song is based on the book “Joshua”
