Ten Lepers
Ten unclean and nowhere to go.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
Ten men, lepers in a Hebrew town.
Ten crying: "Lord, won't you please come down."
No hope near 'til one fine day,
Jesus of Nazareth passed that way.
Ten unclean and nowhere to go.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
"Lord make me clean," was their single cry.
"See, how the whole world passes us by.
No man's home will take us in!"
Then Christ bent down to touch their skin.
Ten unclean and nowhere to go.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
Like a tree when it's buds come true,
or a patch of spring that is fresh and new.
Christ restore the ones defiled,
give them the flesh of a new born child.
Ten unclean and nowhere to go.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
God gives gifts to us every day.
Favors His people in every way.
Hope restored and pain relieved.
Do you ever give thanks for a gift received?
Ten unclean and nowhere to go.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
Thank you Lord, for the summer sun.
For sight and song and good deeds done.
For faith and family and loving friends.
For the day that begins and the night that ends.
Ten unclean and nowhere to go.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
Ten men, lepers in a Hebrew town.
Ten crying: "Lord, won't you please come down."
No hope near 'til one fine day,
Jesus of Nazareth passed that way.
Ten unclean and nowhere to go.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
"Lord make me clean," was their single cry.
"See, how the whole world passes us by.
No man's home will take us in!"
Then Christ bent down to touch their skin.
Ten unclean and nowhere to go.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
Like a tree when it's buds come true,
or a patch of spring that is fresh and new.
Christ restore the ones defiled,
give them the flesh of a new born child.
Ten unclean and nowhere to go.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
God gives gifts to us every day.
Favors His people in every way.
Hope restored and pain relieved.
Do you ever give thanks for a gift received?
Ten unclean and nowhere to go.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
Thank you Lord, for the summer sun.
For sight and song and good deeds done.
For faith and family and loving friends.
For the day that begins and the night that ends.
Ten unclean and nowhere to go.
Ten men cleansed as clean as snow.
One returned to give God thanks,
but nine went away.
