[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!
