Story Behind the Song
This song is a reminder that while everyones hears God's word, we must also realized that there is a "Lesson to be learned " in what Jesus is teaching us through the bible.
Lyrics
Once there was a man, a good Samaritan. He came upon a stranger. His life is was in danger. The priest had walked on by, and so did the Levite, but the good Samaritan, he took good care of him.
( Chorus ) So the story goes, every body knows, but there's a lesson to be learned. Listen to the words, that everybody's heard. There's a lesson to be learned.
Heard about the brother, who went up to his father, asked him for his share of, what he would inherit. Soon it wasn't long, before all of it was gone. He had spent his money, on wine women and song. He knew that he was wrong, so he went back home, Father told the son, I forgive you for what you've done. So kill the fatted calf, my youngest son is home at last.....
