[Verse 1 - from the coasts] A woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, Crying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David. My daughter is grievously vexed with a devil; But he answered her not a word. [Interlude - the disciples pass] [Refrain - still she came] Send her away, for she crieth after us. I am sent to the lost sheep of Israel. Then came she and worshipped him, Saying only, Lord, help me. [Bridge - beneath the table] It is not meet to take the children's bread And cast it to dogs. Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs Which fall from their masters' table. [Chorus - the answer] O woman, great is thy faith. Be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole From that very hour. [Outro] Truth, Lord, one crumb from the table. Great is thy faith.
