Penelope Judd Feat. Epiphany Kidz

Once upon a time in a distant land
 Far beyond the sea where there lived no man
 Or woman- in fact, lo and behold
 The oldest person there was only 12 years old
 Because all the grown-ups had washed away in a flood
 One town in particular there was called Mud
 Because every sister, cousin and brother
 From head to toe in mud they were covered
 But anyway, in this town called Mud
 There lived a little girl named Penelope Judd
 Now Penelope was a very sad, sad girl
 Because she was living in a bad, bad world
 Where kid teased each other and acted really mean
 They lied, cheated and stole and their speech was obscene
 With no grown-ups around, nobody was really wise
 So every kid did what was right in their own eyes
 Penelope would cry- like every single day
 No matter what she did, the tears wouldn't go away
 But deep down in her heart, she hoped it would get better
 Because of what her grandpa had written in a letter
 He said, "Penelope, it's great news that I bring
 On the mountain top there lives a great King
 The King has a Son, and being a proud Father
 He's going to throw the Prince a huge party in His honor
 But the good part: and I hope it gets you excited
 Penelope Judd, you're officially invited!
 He's sending a Dove- He'll tell you all you need to know
 Just have your bags packed and be ready to go"
 It had been such a long time Penelope was waiting
 She wondered if the letter was true or just faking
 But one day she was playing outside
 And to her great surprise, the Dove had arrived!
 He said:
 Off we go with no delay
 Don't let nobody try to make you stay
 We're gonna see the King, we're on our way
 And all the old things gon' pass away
 The Dove told her that He was sent by the King
 If she wanted to go, she had to run and grab her things
 Penelope said, "OK. I'll be right back!"
 Ran into the house and came back out with her knapsack
 The Dove said, "Penelope, the party is in a day
 Stay alert, follow me and I'll lead the way"
 So as He flew and Penelope walked the path
 She waived good-bye to her friends and they started to laugh
 They said that she was silly for following the Dove
 Just to go to some stupid party up above
 Penelope and the Dove continued on their way
 But then she got sad, because part of her wanted to stay
 But then she thought to herself, "Why would I want to stay?
 Because all they do is play in the mud all day
 And while they're doing that, I'm gonna see the King!"
 It made Penelope so happy, she started to sing
 She said
 Off I go with no delay
 And ain't nobody gonna make me stay
 I'm gonna see the King- I'm on my way
 And all the old things gon' pass away
 Now when they had been walking for a long time
 They reached the foot of the mountain and they started to climb
 Penelope got scared, not sure if she could keep
 going because the mountain was very, very steep
 On top of that, it was now dark outside
 The Dove said, "Keep your eyes on me- I'll be your guide"
 Getting to the top was a difficult trip
 But the Dove was there to pick her up whenever she slipped
 And she was so excited when they got near the top
 that she didn't even stop when her knapsack dropped
 The Dove led her to the Palace and said, "Farewell!
 See you inside!" He flew away; Penelope rang the bell
 A huge angel answered, looked her up and down
 She knew something was wrong because he had a big frown
 "Can I help you, ma'am?" "Yes, I'm here for the party
 I have an invitation" He said, "I'm so sorry!
 There's no way that I can let you through these doors
 The King won't let anyone dirty up His floors"
 She didn't understand, so without coming near her
 He reached into his pocket and He pulled out a mirror
 And for the very first time, she saw that she was dirty
 The Palace was spotless- she knew she was unworthy
 As the angel continued, "I'm sorry, little friend
 but..."A voice inside the party said, "You can let her in"
 The next thing she knew, the Prince Himself was at the door
 He looked at her, smiled and said, "There's room for one more"
 He reached out and touched her- instantly she was clean
 Wearing the brightest robe that she had ever seen
 If the Mud kids had seen it, they would have gone blind
 "Where'd you get it?", she asked, He said, "Actually, it's mine"
 And as He lead her in through the Palace doors
 He sang the sweetest song she ever heard before
 He said:
 Long ago, laid aside my crown
 Became a Mud kid, traveled to your town
 They kicked me out, didn't want me around
 But those who love me get to share my crown
