Leper I Am
leper i am
oozing is filth
come, Great I AM
rid of this spilth
i, the leper
lack sensation
and such shatter
cause these lesions
leper i am
so far from God
irked-- eye problem
joy-- i forgot
leprosy rules
hurting all friends
carelessly drools
nothing it mends
leper i am
all seems hopeless
step in, I AM
this heart's loveless
leper i am
please do linger...
... touch, Great I AM;
heal each finger
leper i am,
monster-- all hail!
long race i ran
from self, oh fail
o Great I AM
take over now
hurt many Man
enough pain now
leper i am
no more to be
bid Lord, "do scram"
infections flee
leper i am
hideous; stinks
i touch Your hem
healing in Wings
leper was i
but help me still
each day, oh my
has its fair deal
God; constant help
You did befriend
my rotten self
Thank You. Amen.
