promise

歌詞

A hand of fear gripped the crowd That day at Jairus' home When the doctor shook his head And said she's gone You could feel that mother's heart break You could hear them cry and mourn Their little girl was only twelve years old Somewhere in the distance Outlined against the sun There came a Man on a mission From the throne They said "look somebody's coming" But what they did not know It was their Promise coming down That dusty road There's a Promise coming down that dusty road From His holy hand healing virtue flows He's got the keys to what you need Death and hell He will defeat There's a Promise coming down that dusty road The wonder turned to mocking When Jesus did speak 'Cause He said your daughter's not dead She's just asleep Then He turned to the unbelievers And He told them all "go home" They heard Him say "Leave Me and death alone" And then He laid His hand upon the child And He looked death right in the eye He said, "All power in Heaven And earth it belongs to me" And with a voice that sounds like thunder He hurled death and hell He will defeat Oh there's a promise coming down your dusty road There's a Promise coming down that dusty road From His holy hand healing virtue flows He's got the keys to what you need Death and hell He will defeat There's a Promise coming down that dusty road
