The Test for Leprosy

Under the law

Set by Almighty God

The priests had the power

to change your destiny

Festering boils

chronic disease

for seven days

complete isolation

The test for leprosy

find you unclean

Consigned to neglect

outside the city gates

tear all your clothes

and cover your face

One hope you have

your sores will turn white

thru ritual atonement

pronounce you clean

The test for leprosy

find heal the unclean

Leprosy, leprosy

unclean

Leprosy, leprosy

unclean

We are all like lepers

without Christ's love in us

let him heal you let him

heal you let him will you
