Talitha Koumi

I saw father was frightened
As he looked down at me
And though my eyes were closed
Still I could see
The confusion and fear he failed
To hide with a smile.
As he wondered if he might lose
His only child
And so all at once he left
And desperately ran
In search for the One
Who might touch me
With healing hands
Talitha Koumi
He spoke like a song
Though lifeless and cold
At once I became strong
Talitha Koumi
He spoke with a smile
As he handed my father back
His only child
Healing hands were touching my brow
And I made the long journey back
Though I don't know how
His face was the first I saw
The first words that I heard
The warmth of his healing hands
The sound of his healing words
Talitha Koumi
Spoken soft in my ear
Though I was so far away
Still somehow I could hear
Though death had made me deaf
I heard with my heart
And followed those healing words
Away from the dark
