Heaven's Cent

I work my hands down to the bone
For a Boss I'll never know
Until He takes my tired hands
To His Kingdom Come


Every Thursday I get paid
For my job not for my faith
The CEO of life
Bounces all my checks


I'm seeing others get their dues
So I know Your word is truth
I've been patient for my time, my miles and what's been coming to me
I'm only asking for one cent
A shiny Heaven's cent
So won't You send her down to me


As I'm about to give my two weeks
I find a penny with angelic sheen
In the Garden of Eden
She's Heaven's finest rose


I've worn the skin off of my knees
Giving thanks for the mercy
My voice has gone dry
From this praying song


Now You've given me my dues
So I know Your word is truth
I'd been patient for my time, my miles and what's been given to me
I only asked You for one cent
A shiny Heaven's cent
So You sent her down to me


It's been so long
It's been so long
She's Heaven's Cent to me


She's Heaven's Cent
Heaven's Cent
She's Heaven's Cent sent down to me
