[leper]
sometimes i hear my wife
she sobs there by our bedroom window
she says-

[wife]
god hear my cry
how could you leave this woman widowed?

[leper]
i just wanna hold her
but i have to act as if she’s dead to me
from the moment i told her i ran
can’t stand with leprosy

rewind now
start the silence
as i lay there it became clear
i start to buy this
as the shame grows and i disappear
into the darkness
i can’t let her see me like this
she doesn’t know
so i have to go

no time for why god? why me?
write a note then i leave
blow a kiss to my kids
as i stand by the door
bandage my hands i question no more
you could clearly see i had leprosy
and she doesn’t know, so i have to go

i guess you could say i died
became a beggar on the streets
most days i try to hide
i see my wife, but she don’t recognize me
i start to hear things of a miracle man
could this be real?
rumor has it if you just ask him
you could be cleared of all and healed

the lame dance the blind see
take a chance and try to find “he”
street after street i chase down the crowd
see my chance, and yell his name too loud
everybody sees i have leprosy hoooo
i don’t know
should i go, should i go, should i go?

i try to hide in fear of rejection
but in the eyes of this man
i saw my reflection
this man knows what it’s like to be
shunned by your children
and rejected by your bride
but if this is real and this is him
i might get to see my family again
i don’t know, but i have to know

he sees me, walks toward me
i fall down in his glory
his glory filling my lungs
i can barely breathe
lord if you’re willing
you can make me clean?

the crowd holds their breath, watching me
jesus takes a step, touching me
then clearly and gently he says

[jesus]
i am willing, be cleansed
i am willing, be cleansed
i am willing, be cleansed
be cleansed, be cleansed

i am willing, be cleansed
i am willing, be cleansed
i am willing, be cleansed
be cleansed, be cleansed

[leper]
my heart beats, the disease leaves
i see him i see forever
i’m complete as our eyes meet
broken pieces come together

and you could clearly see
there was no more leprosy
and she doesn’t know
so i have to go
i have to go

she has to know!
