Outside Looking In

	Here I am more or less a man
	Second rate, the last in line
	One of life's little twists of fate
	But here I stand
	the unaccepted man (Neh 1:9)
	At the temple gate...
	Sometimes I sit and wonder why
	I was born
	When everything that I touch
	Seems to turn out wrong
	Though I'm a mistake
	There must be a place I belong
	But I'm outside looking in (Luke 15:14)
	(Life looks so easy, they all seem so happy)
	Yes, I'm outside looking in
	(And everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly)
	I'm all alone without a friend
	'Cause I'm outside looking in
	The plan was laid
	I guess I was made this way (Psa 51:5)
	I've tried before
	but I just can't seem to change
	Still my heart longs to belong
	I wish there was a way
	But I'm outside looking in
	(The beautiful city – they all seem so happy) (Eph 2:21)
	Yes, I'm outside looking in
	(And everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly)
	The celebration will begin
	While I'm still outside looking in
	Oh, I'm outside looking in (Gal 4:26)
	(They make it look easy to love and be happy)
	Yes, I'm outside looking in
	(I'm cast out and ugly and nobody loves me)
	Oh, nobody knows me now I'm outside looking in
	(The beautiful city – they all seem so happy) (Num 24:5)
	Oh, nobody sees the ones outside looking in
	(And everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly)
	Oh, nobody knows me now
	As life goes on for them
	I will stay here in my sin
	'Cause I'm outside looking in
