From Jerusalem to Jericho
Along that lonely road
A certain man was set upon
And robbed of all his gold
They stripped him and they beat him
And they left him there for dead
Who was it then that come along
And bathed the aching head?
Tell me who
Tell me who
Tell me who was this neighbor
Kind and true?
From Jerusalem to Jericho
We're traveling every day
And many are the fallen ones
That lie along the way
From Jerusalem to Jericho
A certain priest come by
He heard the poor man crying
But he could not hid his cry
He drew his robes about him
And he quickly walked away
Who was it then that come along
And ministered that day?
Tell me who
Tell me who
Tell me who was this neighbor
Kind and true?
From Jerusalem to Jericho
We're traveling every day
And many are the fallen ones
That lie along the way
From Jerusalem to Jericho
The wounded man did lay
Along come then a Samaritan
Who was despised they say
He ministered unto the man
And then he took him in
He paid his fare and told the host
To take good care of him
Tell me who
Tell me who
Tell me who was this neighbor
Kind and true?
From Jerusalem to Jericho
We're traveling every day
And many are the fallen ones
That lie along the way
From Jerusalem to Jericho
We're traveling everyday
And many are the fallen ones
That lie along the way
They seemed despised rejected
But no matter what they've been
When everyone casts them out
Then Jesus takes them in
Tell me who
Tell me who
Tell me who was this neighbor
Kind and true?
From Jerusalem to Jericho
We're traveling every day
And many are the fallen ones
That lie along the way
