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