Call It Education
Let's say I, let's say I
Was thrown out of my home
Given the shirt off my back
And told to go make it on my own
You'd think I might wish for something scrumptious
Like a roll or scone
Ain't you ever heard that man can't live by bread alone?
As I recall, He's Lord of all
He don't forget you, in times of need
There's a lesson, in ev'ry trial
Call it education, when you don't succeed
S'pose that you, s'pose that you
Were the one that lost it all
Health, money, family, happiness
With no one left to call
Would you pass or fail the test?
Would you rise or fall?
If your treasures are up in heaven, you've naught to worry 'bout at all
As I recall, He's Lord of all
He don't forget you, in times of need
There's a lesson, in ev'ry trial
Call it education, when you don't succeed
