Poem
Ten Lepers sought the Lord carrying their badges with a Plea unclean unclean was the cry Mercy alone was their Plea The King of mercy heard their cries by his word He healed them all One amazed returned with praise A new disciple of grace Four Lepers at the Syrian gate though hungry yet harmless The King of mercy prepared a table, Bade them eat from the banquet divine Providence had them in mind Though the host of Syrian heard the noise of Chariot Paving way for more Lepers Zacchaeus fashioned by nature saw a crowd He was the chief among publican On that day, the master was passing bye, His vantage view was a sycomore tree He wanted to be loved though a sinner, Hasten and come down Say the Mercy King I must abide in thine House He found grace on that day And He must need go through Samaria, A prostitute came to the well abandoned and used by five men, The Jews had no dealing with the Samaritan was her only theology, Mercy King had the better gift, suspend even His meal to save a soul when her case came to light, she became an evangelist. Come see a man who told me all that i ever did The city saw the King He was Born blind, never once did he see the Light Families afraid to own him as beggarly he sought for ease, Even the Priest love to see him so But the King of mercy spotted him from Heaven He was marked for appointment And when his case was called One thing I know He said, “Once I was blind but now i see” Thirty eight Years, he was bedridden in competition with diseased folks like himself, waiting for certain season in vain, Angels could not give a helping hand, the fastest feet must take their portion at the pool The King of mercy came for him This time the pool was no longer needed A faith ascent took him home At the gate they called beautiful, No one hoped to meet a lame beggar there, But Life happens to us all, as for him this case was bad for forty years he roamed in obscure darkness The helpers with feets feeds from him, they lend him legs to seat and beg with his state they have a trade But the King of mercy on way to the Temple and would not leave him without help Rising up in His name, he went with those who had feet He too was a Commander, but a son's sickness exposed his weakness A father's love compelled him to this Journey from capernaum to Galilee several distance with faith The King of Mercy saw his son and saw him coming too Just a word of Authority from the Master, he know about Power. “Go thy son liveth” He needs not another “He sent his word and He healed them and delivered them from their destruction”
