Jesus heals Jairus' daughterMark 5:35-43
While he was still speaking, there came from the ruler's house some who said, “Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?” But overhearing what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not fear, only believe.” And he allowed no one to follow him except Peter and James and John the brother of James. They came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and Jesus saw a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly. And when he had entered, he said to them, “Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but sleeping.” And they laughed at him. But he put them all outside and took the child's father and mother and those who were with him and went in where the child was. Taking her by the hand he said to her, “Talitha cumi,” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, arise.” And immediately the girl got up and began walking (for she was twelve years of age), and they were immediately overcome with amazement. And he strictly charged them that no one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat.
Lyrics
Verse 1:Break on through
My secret sins, my secret shame.
Make me new,
Healing begins when you call my name.
Speak to me- only you can save;
Call me out from the grave:
Chorus:
"Arise, my child arise-
Take hold of my hand and open your eyes.
Arise, my love arise-
From slumber awake to walk in the light.
Arise."
Verse 2:
Savior slain-
All of my sins He overcame.
Stone rolled back,
"He is alive!" the Angels proclaim.
Shout it out, He has conquered death,
Let his voice be your life:
