Promise Coming Down That Dusty Road

A hand of fear griiped that crowd that day At jairus home When the doctor shoock his head and said Shes gone You could feel that mothers heart break You could hear them cry and moan Their little girl Was only twelve years old Somewhere in the distance outlined against the sun There came a man with a mission from the throne They said to look somebody is coming But what they did not know It was the promise comimg down that dusty road Theres a promise coming down that dusty road From his holy hand healing virtue flows Hes got the keys to what you need Death and hell he will defeat Theres a promise coming down that dusty road Wonder turned to mocking when jesus did speak He said your daughter is not dead shes just asleep And then he turned to the unbelievers and he told them all go home They heard him say leave me and death alone Then he laid his hands upon the child He looked death right in the eye He said all power on heaven and earth belongs to me And with a voice that sounds like thunder He hailed death assunder and then he said Little girl rise and be healed Theres a promise coming down that dusty road From his holy hands healing virtue flows Hes got the keys to what you need Death and hell he will defeat Theres a promise coming down that dusty road (End)
