Talitha Cumi

The Sun will rise, on her sweet face
He said, “Believe. She’s only sleeping”
“Talitha Cumi; Dear daughter, Arise!”
"Talitha Cumi" , the father cried.
open her eyes and bring her near
I want to know she’s not lost forever
Can you heal her heart and make her reappear?

That day of days of teaching all and His, disciples.
Three followed him, to The place, of Her 12 years

Those who were there
They wailed, they cried, Full of Despair and full of pride
without a comfort. over her last Breath. As if in vain,
as if they knew, but they could not

Believe in whom this stranger came for
they never knew, why his power was brought here
But how could He, even the Father’s teacher and their Redeemer,
Die for All?

Talitha Cumi; Dear Lamb, arise!
"Talitha Cumi, our Christ has died"
Open my eyes and bring me closer
I need to know, I’m not lost forever
And thou art near, erase my fear.

The Sun did rise, on his sweet face.
He said “Believe, I’m only sleeping.”
