Leper

Terry Clark 1993

Jesus walked along the road one day
A blind man cried out, he’d say oh lord hear me
Please come and heal me
He touched his lips,
He touched the ground
He touched his eyes when he looked around
The man could see, oh the man could see
Oh how he loved

The group of lepers crying out, that’s Jesus
The one we’ve heard about
Please make us clean, you can make me clean
He looked at them and drew them close
Said, be clean and when he spoke they had new skin
They were whole again

Oh how he loved, oh how he loved them
I am that leper, I am that blind man
It was my broken heart, my broken heart that was mended
That was mended by the touch of his hand

He walked the streets around the lake of Galilee
I saw him there, yes he was really there
When he spoke I knew heavens light
was shining through his eyes at me
Oh he looked at me
