Crumbs
[Intro: Ambassador]
You know I'm glad I can relate
Some people in the bible, the ones who felt so unworthy, that they just wanted a lil' something
And Jesus is a lil something... he's all sufficient
[Chorus 1: Jessica Reedy & Ambassador]
Just give me the crumbs (Three stories in the bible)
That's all I need
Just give me the crumbs (They talk about his sufficiency...)
That's all I need
Just give me the crumbs (Just his lil something being enough)
That's all for me (If you got a Bible, why don't you get it out? I'mma paraphrase tho)
Cause i'm worthy, unworthy of you (Mark 7:24-30, Syrophonecian woman)
Just give me the crumbs
[Verse 1: Ambassador]
She was there getting her peepin' on, seeking Jesus, while Jesus was was there getting His eating on
She could see people sleeping on, what he was teaching on
She was on some silent light 'Keep it calm'
Didn't even know where she belonged
She kind of knew she said, 'I'm not a Jew, I'm a Syrophoenician jawn
But her belief was strong, plus her needs were long
She thought, I've gotta get His attention like beeping horns
But what about her sin? That'll be bad if she was disqualified by her raggedy past
And what about the men who knew the habits she has and how in sin, she's at home like a rabbit in grass?
No more waiting and contemplating, faith has to be cast like a net
It's like a check, it has to be cashed
And when it was despite the lack of status she had, Jesus was glad that she asked
Just give me the crumbs
[Chorus 2: Jessica Reedy & Ambassador]
Just give me the crumbs
That's all I need (That is crazy)
I don't want the lunch (I think it was her answer that blew Him away)
I just want a piece
Just give me the crumbs (That's how I feel sometimes, that's how a lot of people feel)
That's all for me
Cause i'm worthy, unworthy of you (But look at the Lord Jesus. Luke 7:1-10, A Centurian sermon...)
Just give me the crumbs
[Verse 2: Ambassador]
He was a dude with a voice known for thundering
He was a ruler, had a couple boys under him
Still he'd come to Him, humbled and wondering if He could help with his partner's health which was crumbling
He'd heard with a word, that Jesus could do things
Legs that never walked bouncing up like they had new springs, Eyes that never saw, seeing new things
Stuff like that and even stuff flyer than two wings
Then he thought of his boy and thought of how his boy was short of time and in order to save him he had to cordially ask the Lord to do something for Him
Poor him, but wait, He's busy
Would He ignore him?
What if He says don't bother me?
Probably would if last night He was in the bar with me
I'm not worthy to have God with me
Jesus speak the word, don't even come to the crib, I've no authority
[Chorus 3: Jessica Reedy & Ambassador]
Just give me the crumbs (The Bible says Jesus was amazed at that)
That's all I need
You don't have to come
Just call for me
Just give me the crumbs
That's all for me
Cause i'm worthy, unworthy of you (Mark 5:25-34)
Just give me the crumbs
[Verse 3: Ambassador]
She was a bleeder. Obviously loved by mosquitoes but not really loved by the leaders
Not really loved by the divas, or guys either, with one touch, you butt heads like beavers
'Cause when you had a condition, it was written "Stay away from her"
Getting it in was forbidden
It had been so long since she'd gotten hugs
She'd forgotten hugs like hip hop's forgotten loves
Then her eyes laid hold of the one who could make whole
She said to her soul "Maybe if I touch the hem of His great robe, His power will revolve on me like fake gold,"
Wait whoa!
All of homegirl's bleeding stopped
And Jesus stopped, cause her faith had Jesus rocked
These are not cute stories, but these are dropped for all of us who need the same grace the bleeder got
[Chorus 4: Jessica Reedy]
Just give me the crumbs
That's all I need
I just want some
To stop all the bleeding
Just give me the crumbs
That's all for me
Cause i'm worthy, unworthy of you
Just give me the crumbs
[Chorus 1: Jessica Reedy]
Just give me the crumbs
That's all I need
Just give me the crumbs
That's all I need
Just give me the crumbs
That's all for me
Cause i'm worthy, unworthy of you
Just give me the crumbs
