Look at you standing there grinning your grin
Alive on the outside but still dead within
I thought that by now you would have found truth
But you don't have faith so you don't have proof
You're a man of no charity
You're a man of no charity
I don't write this song to try and be cruel
But look at you friend you're playing the fool
Chasing the money is all very well
But you can't discern Heaven from Hell
You're a man of no charity
You're a man of no charity
One day you'll know
One day you'll see
One day you'll meet Jesus
Down on one knee
You've got to change
In your big house, all by yourself
So self absorbed it's not good for your health
You think you're enlightened, just misunderstood
Look at your fruit, none of it's good
You're a man of no charity
You're a man of no charity
Look at you standing there grinning your grin
Alive on the outside but still dead within
I thought that by now you would have found truth
But you don't have faith so you don't have proof
You're a man of no charity
You're a man of no charity
