They Come

Battered and bruised they come Scattered and torn they come Homeless and lost they come Lord, they come.. Mocked at and pained they come Laughed at and scorned they come Hopeless and maimed they come Lord, they come.. Unclean and sick they come Diseased and lame they come Tormented and hurt they come Lord, they come.. Trampled and faint they come Rejected and stained they come Wearied and shamed they come Lord, they come Open the gates they come Clear all the ways they come Let angels praise they come Lord, they come... Lord, they come... Lord, they come...
