An original hymn with text by Mary Ann Snowball below.  YouTube video: Like the Leper


In my Samaria, Walking with lesions,

Latter-day maladies Torment my soul.

I lift my searching voice High to the heavens

Pleading for grace divine, And to be whole.


Through His discerning love, Knowing my weakness,

And with omniscient care, God bids me on.

Then, in His majesty, Mercy and meekness

Christ’s balm surrounds me - My stains are gone!


Falling to my knees, As did the leper,

Gratitude seals my love With reverent awe.

I raise my words in thanks -- He is my Healer;

His past Gethsemane Cures without flaw.


Cleansed, I am wholly cleansed, Just like the leper. 

Christ is my perfect Source . . . I’m not alone.

He spent his life for me Teaching, redeeming;

He sacrificed for me; I am His own.
