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
You tear all your clothes
And cover your face
One hope you have
Your sores will turn white
Through ritual atonement
Pronounce you clean
The test for leprosy
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
Will you let him love you?
