Jesus, Master, Have Mercy On Us

 

Luke 17: 13

They’re shouting from the streets, men leprous,

Calling out to the Healer called Jesus,

Jesus, Master, have mercy on us,

Of Your healing, we are desirous.

 

On the road, leprous voices cry out,

Whether or not to Him they were devout,

With all their might they to Jesus did shout,

They weren’t free in public to walk about.

 

Jesus and His team were just passing through,

Many found out, those lepers also knew,

Limitations held not that leprous crew,

They shouted, Jesus heard and made them new.

 

From a distance lepers shouted with persistence,  

To the One in whom they had all confidence,

Lepers, living pure hopeless lives of offense,

Jesus, while passing, gave them new existence.

Amen!
