Mississippi Children's Choir
The Good Samaritan
Chorus:
How can you love God and not you fellow man?
How can you love your brother and not lend a helping hand?
If someone's in trouble, we all know what to do
Just read Luke the tenth chapter, God speaks to me and you
Verse 1:
On the road to Jericho, a Jewish man passed by
They beat him, robbed him, stripped him, and they left the man to die
A priest came by and He saw him, and he heard his feeble cry
But just to keep from helping, he crossed to the other side
Verse 2:
A Levite came down the Jericho road full of curiosity
He also heard his cry for help and crossed the road to see
The Levite did not help him, but crossed to the other side
He went along, along his way and he left the man to die;
How can you love God...
Chorus
Verse 3:
Along came the good Samaritan, a true man of God
He stopped to wait on his brother and hardened not his heart
He gave the man assistance and took him to an inn
He said, whatever is right, I will repay it when I return again;
How can you love God...
Chorus

If my brother's in trouble so am I

If my brother's in trouble so am I
