I had a friend named Sharla
She wore funky clothes
Big boots from a thrift store
Fishing net for pantyhose
And all the people 'round town
Just shook their heads and stared
Yeah, but Sharla, she knew Jesus
So she really didn't care
And she said now
Well, I don't mind if I wear
Second hand clothing
Cuz it's a part of who I am
And who God made me
Making something old brand new
Just like the hope my life has found in you, Jesus
So I don't mind
Here comes John the Baptist
He's wearing camel skin
He's got wild flowers in his hair
And he's talkin' 'bout God again
Well he didn't come to impress nobody
He just came to share
Cuz you can't judge a man by the color of his skin
Or the clothing that he wears
And John said
Well, I don't mind if I wear
Second hand clothing
Cuz it's a part of who I am
And who God made me
Making something old brand new
Just like the hope my life has found in you, Jesus
So I don't mind
I'm not saying it ain't cool
To buy your clothes from Paris
But if you can't afford it, brother
Please don't be embarassed
Because there's more to life than fancy clothing
In some fancy room
It might make you wise to walk a mile
In someone else's shoes
Well, I don't mind if I wear
Second hand clothing
Cuz it's a part of who I am
And who God made me
Making something old brand new
Just like the hope my life has found in you, Jesus
So I don't mind
Again one more?
It's great...great poem and great message
:)
