Bilingual
Once, a man who'd lived his life in blindness
Was healed as Jesus Christ was passin' by
He sent him to the waters of Siloam
To wash the clay he'd placed upon his eyes
When the Pharisees demanded how it happened
He told them, "Jesus made this clay and now I see"
When they call the Lord a filthy, evil sinner
The man stood up and said, "This cannot be"
And don't you talk that way about my healer
The things you say, you just cannot defend
Don't you talk that way about my savior
Don't you talk that way about my friend
Now, once I did not have the things I needed
And I asked someone to join with me and pray
But instead of going with me to the Father
He told me words that darkened down the day
He said, "God is far above the things you long for
So, just put to death those things you think you need
For there will be no answer to your calling
Only greater men than you will Heaven heed"
And I said, "Don't you talk that way about my Father
He cares for every little bird that flies
Don't you talk that way about my savior
Even I am Jesus' brother in His eyes"
Now the news is full of terror and destruction
And I hear people on their platforms all around
Sayin', "It's God who's judged the evils of the nations
With tsunamis and those towers crashin' down"
When I think of Jesus' love and His compassion
And His death that paid for all our sin and shame
Somethin' deep inside response in anger
'Cause I know they're tellin' lies in Jesus' name
And I say, "Don't you talk that way about my Father
Evil one's the only one to blame
Don't you talk that way about my savior
Don't try to put that stuff on Jesus' name"
Don't you talk that way about my Father
Those things you say, you just cannot defend
Don't you talk that way about my savior
Don't you talk that way about my friend
No, don't you talk that way about my friend
