Song Lyrics
[Verse 1] When Jesus healed on Sabbath days, He broke the sacred law; The power structures were appalled; Were shocked by what they saw. [Verse 2] For breaking of the Sabbath rules Was such a heinous crime; But Jesus taught that giving care Was right at any time. [verse 3] Laws cannot bind the gen\xe2\x80\x99rous soul Nor halt love\xe2\x80\x99s strong embrace; We cannot regulate good deeds Nor govern gifts of grace. [Verse 4] The time to give support and care Is now and every day; When love was needed, it was there; This was the Jesus Way. [Verse 5] To fail to see the work of God In acts of gen\xe2\x80\x99rous care Shows blindness and a hardened heart; Of this we should beware! [Verse 6] When love is given and received God is revealed each time; When love is given and received It renders life sublime. [Verse 1] When Jesus healed on Sabbath days, He broke the sacred law; The power structures were appalled; Were shocked by what they saw.
