Lyrics or Keywords

I will not pass by on the other side, for I know within my very soul There but for the grace of God go I. 

All alone on the road lay a travelling man

Fallen among thieves

Beaten and bloody and stripped of his clothes

Left for dead and well he might be

A few passed by on the other side

Pretending they just didn't see

Then someone stopped where the stranger lay

To help a neighbor in need.
