A Cura do Leproso
Coral Palestrina
The Healing of the Leper
Humiliated and tired
From family and religion
And separated from friends
The disease excluded him
But faith impelled him
He couldn't resist and pleaded
If you will, Lord, heal me!
If you will, Lord, heal me!
Yes, I want to, you are healed!
Says the Lord Jesus
This is the new law of love
If you will, Lord, heal me!
If you will, Lord, heal me!
Yes, I want to, you are healed!
Says the Lord Jesus
This is the new law of love
With care and against evil
Far above any law
That allows exclusion
The Lord touched him
But he did not remain impure
The evil disappeared, love prevailed!
If you will, Lord, heal me!
If you will, Lord, heal me!
