Song Lyrics

"The Test for Leprosy"

by Tourniquet
Album: Stop The Bleeding

Under the law
Set by Almighty God
The priests had the power
To change your desitiny

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
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
Heal you, let Him, will you'
