The Plague
Generation's leprosy
Unspeakable shame
Untouchable lives
Much in need of love
But these days
Who's got much to give
Give in to the pressure
Cross the street
On the other side
When Jesus told the listening
That those who follow Him
Could bear the strike of the serpent
Could drink the poison in
Was His vision some spectacular scene?
Some exhibition
Some display
Or a reminder
As I live and breathe
To reach out and not be afraid
Chorus
I try to be a Godly man
I try to walk in the steps of Jesus
I disregard the Lord's command
When I walk through my journey
Untouched by human hands
Untouched by human hands
I despise your evil way
Have no part in such things
From such obvious violations
I keep my hands clean
But inside this heart of mine
Oh, there dwells little good
Only the flow of calvary
Only the Lord and His blood
God bless the child
And lest I forget
God save the dying ones
Who must live with regret
Out on the street
Out there where no one can see
Oh Lord, stretch forth Your hand
And reach them through me
