The Preacher's Salad

[Verse] Down at the diner where the folks all gather 'round, Our preacher sat with a salad, quiet, not a sound, Mixed with greens were little mushrooms, golden hue, He took a bite and suddenly, he saw things new. [Verse 2] Now he's wondering 'bout the meaning, every single day, Why some folks are suffering, while others find their way, He's asking questions 'bout the life we choose to live, And thinking 'bout the grace that we need to give. [Chorus] Oh, preacher's tasting colors, seeing life anew, He's feeling every moment, the red, the green, the blue, He's venturing to places his mind has never gone, And now he's preaching kindness from dusk until dawn. [Verse 3] He's walking through the streets with a smile so wide, Looking in the eyes of strangers, seeing what's inside, No longer quick to judge, he's learned to understand, You can't know someone's story 'til you've held their hand. [Bridge] The old church bells are ringing, a new sermon to be told, Of love and deep compassion, more precious than gold, So sit down with your neighbor, take a moment to see, We all carry burdens, and dreams longing to be free. [Chorus] Oh, preacher's tasting colors, seeing life anew, He's feeling every moment, the red, the green, the blue, He's venturing to places his mind has never gone, And now he's preaching kindness from dusk until dawn.
