Go and Do the Same
long ago a man did travel from jerusalem to jericho
he fell along a band of robbers left him for dead beside the road
the only soul who had compassion
was stranger to God's chosen race
was one who had the heart of Jesus
and saved this man from the wretched fate
one man stopped and helped his neighbor in his suffering and pain
now i hear the words of our dear Savior saying
GO AND DO THE SAME
i see a man in desperation out on the street most everyday
but like so many other people
i turn my head the other way
who will show the hand of mercy
who'll give him shelter from the cold
then i'm reminded of the story that Jesus told so long ago
how one man stopped to help his neighbor in his suffering and pain
now i hear the words of our dear Savior saying
GO AND DO THE SAME
and when i asked who is my neighbor this world of suffering and pain
oh i hear the words of our dear Savior saying
GO AND DO THE SAME
he fell along a band of robbers left him for dead beside the road
the only soul who had compassion
was stranger to God's chosen race
was one who had the heart of Jesus
and saved this man from the wretched fate
one man stopped and helped his neighbor in his suffering and pain
now i hear the words of our dear Savior saying
GO AND DO THE SAME
i see a man in desperation out on the street most everyday
but like so many other people
i turn my head the other way
who will show the hand of mercy
who'll give him shelter from the cold
then i'm reminded of the story that Jesus told so long ago
how one man stopped to help his neighbor in his suffering and pain
now i hear the words of our dear Savior saying
GO AND DO THE SAME
and when i asked who is my neighbor this world of suffering and pain
oh i hear the words of our dear Savior saying
GO AND DO THE SAME
