"Those People" lyrics

"Those People"

Just a woman at a well one day
Hanging her head down in shame
Keep your distance, gotta stay away
From those people

Just a beggar by the roadside
Everybody else passing by
'Cause who needs to waste their time
On those people?

People like you, people like me
Maybe not as different as you think we might be

To anybody on the outside looking in
Let me tell you, that's where grace begins
We were never meant to live in the shadow of a steeple
There's no such thing as "too far gone"
He ain't writing down what you've done wrong
When you think you're not good enough
Remember, Jesus loves
Those people
Those people

Ain't nobody worth writing off
'Cause Lord knows we've all been lost
And at the end of the day, we're all
Those people

People like you, people like me
Maybe not as different as you think we might be

To anybody on the outside looking in
Let me tell you, that's where grace begins
We were never meant to live in the shadow of a steeple
There's no such thing as "too far gone"
He ain't writing down what you've done wrong
When you think you're not good enough
Remember, Jesus loves
Those people
Those people

Two criminals sent to die
Last breath of a wasted life
Surely there's no paradise
For those people

But one man in between the two
Paying a price for what He didn't do
He said, "I'm doing this just for you"
Then He hung His head and died, and gave His life
For those people

I know those people
You're those people
We're all those people, yeah

To anybody on the outside looking in
Let me tell you, that's where grace begins
We were never meant to live in the shadow of a steeple
There's no such thing as "too far gone"
He ain't writing down what you've done wrong
When you think you're not good enough
Remember, Jesus loves
Those people
Oh, oh
Remember, Jesus loves
Those people
