Verse
[Verse 1]
Bm G
She kept on getting weaker, As day dragged into day,
Bm G
The doctors gave no hope for her, She seemed to fade away,
A Bm
My hours were filled with constant dread. Time became a knife,
G F# Bm
But slowly and relentlessly, cut the chord of life
Bm G
There was a teacher in the region then, Some of us had heard,
Bm G
That he healed a paralytic, By the power of just his word,
A Bm
So with hope again rekindled, I went at once to see,
G F# Bm
If I could find a man named Jesus, From a town in Galilee
[Verse 2]
Bm G
I began to search the city, Soon I saw the crowd,
Bm G
They were pressing in to touch him, And they called his name out loud,
A Bm
But with the strength of desperation, I pushed them all aside,
A Bm
I threw myself before him, And from my knees I cried,
Bm G
Lord come and heal my daughter, Even now she's close to death,
Bm G
Her fever's uncontrollable, She fights for every breath,
A Bm
But God's given you the power Life is your's to give
G F# Bm
And if you'll just lay your hands on her I know that she'll live
Bm A
she'll live
G F# Bm
she'll live
[Verse 3]
Bm G
He just begun to go with me, When a face I saw with fear,
Bm G
Came towards me with the news I knew I didn't want to hear,
A Bm
And although I tried to steal myself, I trembled when he said,
G F# Bm
"Why bother the teacher anymore, your little girl is dead."
[Verse 4]
Bm G
Then Jesus touched my shoulder, And he told me not to not to grieve,
Bm G
The trembling stopped when he looked at me, and said, "Only believe."
A Bm
Then he sent the crowds away Except his closest men,
G F# Bm
And they followed right behind us, As we started off again,
Bm G
But we were still a long ways down the road, When I heard the sounds and cries,
Bm G
of the mourners and musicians, As they strove to dramatize,
A Bm
My grief they had no business with Beneath their loud disguise
G F# Bm
And my wife just sat their silently And stared through empty eyes
[Verse 5]
Bm G
Then Jesus asked the mourners, "Why is it that you weep?,
Bm G
She isn't dead as you suppose, The child is just asleep."
A Bm
It only took a moment, for their wails to turn to jeers!
G F# Bm
"Who does this man think he is Get him out of here!"
Bm G
"But with authority I've never heard, in the lips of any man,
Bm G
He spoke and every sound rolled out with the thunder of command,
A Bm
And in the sudden silence, They all hurried for the door
G F# Bm
Wondering what the reasons were they'd ever come there for
[Verse 6]
Bm G
And then he called his 3 disciples, That were with him on the way,
Bm G
He led them and my wife and me, To where our daughter lay
A Bm
He took her by the hand, he told her, "Child arise."
G F# Bm
And the words were barely spoken, when she opened up her eyes,
Bm G
She rose and walked across the room and stood there at our sides
Bm G
My wife knelt down and held her close, And at last she really cried
A Bm
And then Jesus told us both to see our daughter have some food
G F# Bm
But as to how her life was saved Not to speak a word
[Outro]
Bm A
Not to speak a word
D
But I gotta tell somebody
B
I gotta tell somebody
C#
I gotta tell somebody
D
I gotta tell somebody
B
I gotta tell somebody
C# D
What Jesus did for me
