Jesus is the Good Samaritan – v2

Jesus is the Good Samaritan
we are the wounded traveler,
bleeding on the side of the road;
Jesus cleans our cuts, He bandages us,
Jesus heals our wounds,
Jesus takes us to sanctuaries,
until his return entrusting us
to the saints to the sheep.
 
Jesus is the one who heals us,
His blood washed us,
Christ cleans of our wounds;
May our churches be hospitals,
for the sick, the hurting, the beaten,
until Christ’s return.
 
Jesus is the Good Samaritan
the Shepherd, the great physician,
our example, showing us how to love;
May we not be like the Pharisee,
unlike the Levite; may we be marked by Jesus;
May Christ inform our every step;
We are healed by the blood,
by the oil of the love of Jesus.
 
Jesus calls us to go out and find them,
in the wilderness, out on the road;
to go out to heal them; to lift them,
to tend to their wounds, their pain;
While we too are bleeding in sin
in our brokenness.
