The gentle healer came into our town today

He touched my eyes and the darkness left to stay

But more than the blindness

He took their sins away

The gentle healer came into our town today



The gentle healer came into our town today

He spoke one word that was all he had to say

And one who had dies just rose up straight away

The gentle healer came into our town today



Oh he seems like just an ordinary man

With dirty feet and rough but gentle hands

But the words he says are hard to understand

Yet he seems like just an ordinary man



The gentle healer He left our town today

I just looked around and found he'd gone away

Some folks from town who followed him they say

The gentle healer is the truth, the life, the way

The gentle healer it the truth, the life, the way
