Lyrics of Poverty by First Call
In Haiti a lady
Is climbing the mountains
Young men are singing
On her left and right
She′s taking the Word
To remote congregations
Sixty-five years
She's been taking the light
In Haiti a pastor
Is walking the jungle
He′s wearing a cast-off
American shirt
He'll have his reward
When his struggle is over
He brings hope to the hopeless
And comforts the hurt
And you can hear it in their voices
And you can see it on their faces
When life is spilled
The cup is filled
That's not poverty
No, that′s not poverty
That′s not poverty
No, that's not poverty
In Haiti believers
Have light on their faces
As they march through town
To the riverside
They baptize believers
In this celebration
Of eternal riches
That they have in Christ
And you can hear it in their voices
And you can see it on their faces
When life is spilled
The cup is filled
That′s not poverty
No, that's not poverty
That′s not poverty
No, that's not poverty
And you can hear it in their voices
And you can see it on their faces
When life is spilled
The cup is filled
That′s not poverty
No, that's not poverty
That's not poverty
No, that′s not poverty
