Neither Do I Condemn Thee

By the crowd of worshipers, sorry for their sins,
Was a poor wanderer, rudely brought in;
Scribes came and Pharisees anxious to see
What the meek Nazarene's verdict would be.

Chorus
Neither do I condemn thee, precious words divine,
From the lips of mercy like the sweetest chime.
Wonderful words of Jesus, sing them o'er and o'er,
"Neither do I condemn thee, go and sin no more."


They told of her wanderings, making each flaw,
Spoke of her punishment, quoting the law,
Writing upon the ground sadly and slow,
But said He unheedingly, head bending low.

Still cried the Pharisee's "pray Master pray
What shall we do with her, what doth Thou say
Then said he rebukingly let the first stone
Come from the sinless hands, hence and alone

Cheeks flushing with the shame, turning about
And from His presence, walking slowly out
Then sae we standing there, head bending low
He who the world despised, bade her sin no more

Spoke He most tenderly, pray, woman, pray,
Hast thou no accusers?" "nay, Master, nay,"
"Neither do I condemn thee, soul, sick and sore;
Go forth, I pardon thee, go and sin no more
