Poem based on Luke 17:11-19 Master heal us, almost

Jesus, Master, have mercy on us

Heal us and forget us

A bit show

For all to see

Something we can tell our friends

And it will give you a few points in the process

Jesus

Almost master

Heal us

So we can go about out way

Doing what we want

With no thought of you

(your faith)

Except the story of the day

When you healed us

Except for that one

Outsider

That Samaritan

Who broke ranks

(has healed)

It was a good thing to do and all that

But really

Has he no self

Self

Self Respect

To go groveling like that

All Jesus did was say go to the priests

Show yourselves

(you)

Nothing new here

Same ol’ same ol’

Does he really want us to worship

Thank

Him

For doing nothing?

Thank Him

(and saved)

For our religion?

(you)
