Distressing Disguise Lyrics - Michael Card

He is in the pain, He is in the need 

He is in the poor we are told to feed 

Though He was rich, for us He became poor 

How could He give so much, what was it for? 

In His distressing disguise 

He waits for us to surmise 

That we rob our brothers by all that we own 

And that's not the way He has shown 

Every time a faithful servant serves 

A brother that's in need 

What happens at that moment is a miracle indeed 

As they look to one another in an instant it is clear 

Only Jesus is visible, for they've both disappeared 

He is in the hand that reaches out to give 

He is in the touch that causes men to live 

So speak with your life now, as well as your tongue 

Shelter the homeless, take care of the young
