Jairus Song
(based on Luke 8: 40-56) (Sung to the tune ‘Miss Polly had a dolly’) Jairus had a daughter who was sick, sick, sick So he called for the doctor to come quick, quick, quick The doctor came with his bag and his hat He knocked on the door with a rat-a- tat-tat. Doc. looked at the girl and he shook his head I’m sorry poor Jairus, she’s almost dead Best call for the mourners to help you through There’s nothing much more that I can do! Jairus heard that Jesus was passing by He’d heard Jesus healed, so he thought he’d try. I’ll go ask Jesus to come quick, quick, quick My only daughter is so very sick. A crowd of people was pressing in Jairus saw Jesus speaking so he ran to him He called out Jesus, please don’t stand by Lord help my girl, she’s about to die! They ran to the house where the young girl lay Jesus called to the crowd she’s just asleep OK? Wake up young girl, get up and eat Her eyes opened slowly, she rose to her feet. Though Jesus clearly told us not to tell We rejoice and praise God, for my daughter’s well! © Words Don Stott http://eliab.com 2011 |
