Acts 9 v.32-43 parts
**********
Peter unto Lydda came - Alleluia!
Sometimes called Lod, town the same - Alleluia
There he did find Aeneas* (*E-knee-us) - Alleluia
Came to him in his distress - Alleluia
For he bed-ridden eight years - Alleluia
Yet now to him hope appears - Alleluia
He though paralysed was healed - Alleluia
As Peter to him appealed - Alleluia
Aeneas, Jesus Christ makes - Alleluia
You whole, He your sickness takes - Alleluia
Arise, make your bed and go - Alleluia
He did so, others did know - Alleluia
They did see his healing there - Alleluia
Lydda and Sharon* did share (*Share-on, town)
They turned to the Lord, Him praised - Alleluia
Thankful to Him, worship raised - Alleluia
And at Joppa Tabitha - Alleluia
Dorcas, Gazelle, name for her - Alleluia
Full of good works and alms-deeds - Alleluia
Helping to meet many needs - Alleluia
She became sick, then she died - Alleluia
People there did then confide - Alleluia
In Peter, for he was near - Alleluia
Came to them, said, Do not fear - Alleluia
Weeping widows showed coats to - Alleluia
Him that she had made, old, new - Alleluia
Peter went alone and prayed - Alleluia
By her bedside he was stayed - Alleluia
He turned unto her and said - Alleluia
Tabitha, arise, from dead - Alleluia
She did, and opened her eyes - Alleluia
And sat up, there no denies - Alleluia
He showed her to people, so - Alleluia
That she was alive they know - Alleluia
This caused them too to believe - Alleluia
In the Lord and Him receive - Alleluia!
