Mark 5 v..22-24; v.35-43
*********
Jairus, a ruler of synagogue, he
Besought Jesus greatly, said, Come, see
My little daughter she lay, point of death
Not long before she draws final breath
But come, I pray you, and lay hands on her
That she may be healed, unto life stir
So shall she live, Jesus and the crowd they
Went off to Jairus\' house that day
When they arrived, oen said, Woe, your daughter
Is dead, why trouble Jesus further?
But Jesus said to Jairus, Not fear now
Only believe, though sadly you bow
He said to mourners, Damsel is sleeping
They laughed Him to scorn in their weeping
But He from the house did put them all out
Time to remove unbelief and doubt
Jesus, Peter, James, John, father, mother
Went into damsel\'s room, none other
Jesus took her by the hand, and did say
\'Talitha cumi\', and there did pray
He did say, \'Damsel, little girl, arise\'
She arose, walked, marvels and surprise
They did witness, for she was twelve years old
With great astonishment they behold
