	A more serious look at Missionary work.
	CD: Missionary Stuff Credits: Written by Grady Tolland
	Story Behind the Song This song was actually written by a man named Grady Tolland. He's an ABWE missionary in Chili (last I heard). It takes a look at the more serious side of being a missionary. Specifically the deputation time before a missionary actually makes it to the field of service. Lyrics Missionary﷓ Stuff - Caypo = 2nd Fret It's not D trekking through the jungle in the steaming heat, It's not A eating shishkebob made of monkey meat, It's not G cutting up pythons with your pocket knife, That A makes the biggest part of a missionary's D life. But it's G praying that your kids'Il just take a nap While you're D tryin' to find a church with a hand drawn map It's G raising your kids from the front seat of your A car While you're G drivin down the road tryin' to A figure out where you D are. It's not D cruising down the river in a dug-out log It's not A being guest of honor where they're serving dog. It's not G shooting the breeze in Bengali with the A old D Guru But it's G getting rid of things that you've had for years While you D try to pack a barrel through a blur of tears It's G saying goodbye to Grandma just one more A time. While you're G sitting in the Airport just A pretendin' that you're feeling D fine. It's not D wearing funny clothes in a foreign land. It's not A speaking "jungle-ease" like the natives can. It's not G baptizing thousands in a single day. Or A always getting what you wanted every time you D pray. But it's G growing to love people that you've come to know. And D rejoicing in the changes as you see them grow. It's G being amazed at all the things God has A done And then it's G going home on furlough when you A feel like you have just D begun
