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