Michael Card Album: Close Your Eyes So You Can See Track: Talitha Koumi
Talitha Koumi Lyrics
I saw father was frightened As he looked down at me And though my eyes were closed Still I could see The confusion and fear he failed To hide with a smile. As he wondered if he might lose His only child
And so all at once he left And desperately ran In search for the One Who might touch me With healing hands
Talitha Koumi He spoke like a song Though lifeless and cold At once I became strong Talitha Koumi He spoke with a smile As he handed my father back His only child
Healing hands were touching my brow And I made the long journey back Though I don't know how His face was the first I saw The first words that I heard The warmth of his healing hands The sound of his healing words
Talitha Koumi Spoken soft in my ear Though I was so far away Still somehow I could hear Though death had made me deaf I heard with my heart And followed those healing words Away from the dark
