The Temple |
Roll on up -- for my price is down |
Come on in -- for the best in town |
Take your pick of the finest wine |
Lay your bets on this bird of mine |
Name your price I got everything |
Come and buy it’s all going fast |
Borrow cash on the finest terms |
Hurry now while stocks still last |
(Jesus) |
My temple should be a house of prayer |
But you have made it a den of thieves |
Get up, get out |
My time |
Is almost through |
Little left to do After all |
I’ve tried for three years |
Seems like thirty |
Seems like thirty |
(Crowd) |
See my eyes I can hardly see |
See me stand I can hardly walk |
I believe you can make me whole |
See my tongue I can hardly talk |
See my skin I’m a mass of blood |
See my legs I can hardly stand |
I believe you can make me well |
See my purse I’m a poor, poor man |
Will you touch, will you mend me Christ? |
Won’t you touch, will you heal me Christ? |
Will you kiss, you can heal me Christ |
Won’t you kiss, won’t you pay me Christ? |
(Jesus) |
Oh, there’s too many of you, don’t push me Oh, there’s too little of me, don’t crowd me Heal yourselves! |
