  Psalm 146:5

The Gentle Healer came into our town today.
He touched blind eyes and the darkness left to stay;
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;
the One who had died just rose up straight away.
The Gentle Healer came into our town today.

Oh, He seems like just in ordinary man,
with dirty feet and rough but gentle hands.
The words He says are hard to understand,
and yet, He seems like just and ordinary man.

The Gentle Healer, He left our town today;
I just looked around and found He’d gone away.
Some folks from town had followed Him, they say
that the Gentle Healer is the Truth, the Life, the Way.

 — From the 1985 Album, Scandelon
