That Could Have Been Me - Lyrics - Wayburn Dean

THAT COULD HAVE BEEN ME (Wayburn Dean, Keith Lancaster) All the people who are living in the cold No direction, and no place to call their own Lacking proper shelter pain is all they see It humbles me completely just to know that could have been me Chorus That could have been me Pain and tears relief unknown Questioning why was I ever born That could have been me Starvation in the world is bringing grief All of the blindness, famine and disease I should never take for granted my health And what He's done for me, When I know I could have been the one with no one to rescue me That could have been me with the homeless Not enjoying a happy home It could have been me with the dying all alone Though I know it's not my destiny I've been spared from this much misery I reach out and try to offer some relief In our hearts we just want to say We don't deserve this but you gave anyway That could have been me
