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