Would Jesus Be Welcome
CI picked up this mornings paper,
Ftears of sorrow filled my Ceyes,
read where a church spends forty million,
to reAmbuild and to moderGnize,
Fthe walls will be made of granite,
imported marble on the Cfloors,
there'll be lots of stained glass windows,
Gthe finest wood for all the Cdoors.A  
The Dchurch invited the mayor, G  
and half the folks from city Dhall,
to take part in the dedication,
of the Bmchurch, that would stand so Atall,
it said, the Glocal t.v. station,
will cover the story that Dday,
but I wonder if they invited Jesus,
Aor would he just get in their Dway.
[Chorus]
DWhat I wanna D7know is what about GJesus,
would he be welcomed Dthere,
if he came walking in with Asandles,Ab  G  
dressed in sackcloth, and long Dhair,
Dwon't you D7tell me about the Gsinner,
hooked on drugs and alcoDhol,
oh Lord, it makes me Awonder,Ab  G  
would he be welcomed there at Dall.
[Chorus]
DI picked up this mornings paper,
Gand tears of sorrow filled my Deyes.

Would Jesus Be Welcome

I picked up this mornings paper,

F C

tears of sorrow filled my eyes,

read where a church spends forty million,

Am G

to rebuild and to modernize,

the walls will be made of granite,

imported marble on the floors,

there'll be lots of stained glass windows,

G C A

the finest wood for all the doors.

D G

The church invited the mayor,

and half the folks from city hall,

to take part in the dedication,

Bm A

of the church, that would stand so tall,

it said, the local t.v. station,

will cover the story that day,

but I wonder if they invited Jesus,

A D

or would he just get in their way.

[Chorus]

D D7 G

What I wanna know is what about Jesus,

would he be welcomed there,

A Ab G

if he came walking in with sandles,

dressed in sackcloth, and long hair,

D D7 G

won't you tell me about the sinner,

hooked on drugs and alcohol,

A Ab G

oh Lord, it makes me wonder,

would he be welcomed there at all.

[Chorus]

I picked up this mornings paper,

G D

and tears of sorrow filled my eyes.
