Galilee Healing

Matthew 4:23-25, Mark 1:21-3:19
Luke 5:11-5:39

Then He taught in Capernaum of Galilee, where a man was demon possessed.
Jesus commanded the devil to leave him. And the man came calm and blessed.

That evening at Simon's house Simon's mother-in-law lay sick.
When the people knew Jesus healed her they gathered around him quick.

He healed multitudes till evening, and woke up early the next day.
He went into a solitary place and there he knelt to pray.

Then departing with his disciples he preached throughout Galilee.
Where a man begged him for healing. The man was full of leprosy.

He said Lord if you will you can heal me. This leper made quite a scene.
Jesus had compassion on his faith. I will. Now be thou clean.

The man was cleansed of leprosy. Jesus fame spread far and wide.
When Jesus wanted a private place to pray, in the wilderness he'd hide.

While Jesus preached, a man was brought, lame upon his bed.
The crowd kept them from the front door. They came through the roof instead.

Now many learned and Pharisees we're watching Jesus heal.
So when Jesus saw this crippled man he thought now here's the deal.

These religious leaders have come to judge. Some fault they want to find.
I'll heal and forgive his sin. Now that will blow their mind.

So he said thy sins be forgiven thee. The Pharisees scowled and spat.
Is there a problem asked Jesus? Even you could fake a phrase like that.

But to prove that I can forgive sin, I'll heal this crippled man.
Arise and walk, and the man jumped up. Which of you could make him stand?

The people cheered and glorified God for they knew this man was lame.
But the Pharisees were angry and hated him just the same.

There was another man they hated. He collected the Roman tax.
Levi believed, and when Christ called him, he followed Jesus to the max.

Jesus' fame spread through the region. Crowds grew larger than you could count.
So Jesus climbed atop a hill, and preach The sermon on the mount.


The Good Shepherd

John 10:1-21

A robber enters the sheepfold by climbing over the wall.
The shepherd comes through the door, and the sheep all know his call.

He calls them each by name, and he leads them in the way.
The stranger they'll not follow, or listen to what he'll say.

The people didn't understand the meaning of His word.
So this time Jesus spelled it out so they'd know what they heard.

I am the door of the sheep. Thieves and robbers came before.
Salvation only comes through me, as I said, I am the door.

The thief comes just to kill and steal and destroy, but that's not me.
I am come to give you life, and that more abundantly.

I am the Good Shepherd, who lays his life down for the sheep.
When trouble comes the hiring runs. He leaves the flock he claims to keep.

Israel is one flock, but other flock I also hold.
I'll gather all my sheep into one flock, and to one fold.

I'll give my life, to save my sheep. Jesus cleansed us all from sin.
No one can take my life from me. I lay it down and take it up again.

As they listened some said he's a devil. Others said, he's lost his mind.
Believers said, He's come from God. Who else could heal the blind?
