All He Had Lyrics

Snow fell down
as we sang out
on the corner of a busy street

Hand painted signs
asking passers by,
"Please help us give to those in need"

A little boy pushed through the crowd
Reached in his pockets and emptied them out

He gave all he had
with love across his face
All he had
never asked to be repaid
All he had
to free someone from pain
Though they didn't know his name
He gave all he had

Then I noticed there
in a rusted chair
a crippled man with nothing left to eat

Bare frozen hands
held his dog tags
tears streaming down his army fatigues

Then he wheeled across the snow covered street
Took every cent he got and laid them at our feet

He gave all he had
with love across his face
All he had
never asked to be repaid
All he had
to free someone from pain
Though they didn't know his name
He gave all he had

Something about the way they looked me in the eyes
Reminds me of the man born on Christmas night

Who gave all he had
with love across his face
All he had
never asked to be repaid
All he had
to free someone from pain
though they didn't know his name
He gave all he had

He gave all he had
