lyrics

Tabitha, Arise
Words & music: Susan Booth Mack Snipes

Peter, come quickly, came the messenger’s shout.
Tabitha’s dead and her body’s laid out.
But Joppa’s not far from Lydda, her home,
If you hurry she may yet live, please hurry, please come! For...

Chorus
God is Life and commands man to live.
It’s not just a promise, but a law that Life gives
Of eternal, unending, sweet being that’s pure--
Coexistence with Love in a union that’s sure.

Peter arose and came with them then,
And as he drew near, heard the weeping’s great din.
The widows stood round with the garments she’d sewn,
Aching with sorrow for their friend who had gone. Still...

Chorus

So much good, so much good!
All of her life she’d lived as she should.
Yet it wasn’t enough to make her survive,
But God’s blessed allness reveals man alive. Because…

Chorus

Peter put them all out, that cried and that wailed,
The doubts and the fears that goodness had failed.
He knelt down in prayer, then commanded, Arise.
He lifted her up as she opened her eyes. Oh yes..

God is Life and commands man to live.
It’s not just a promise, but a law that Life gives
Of eternal, unending sweet being that pure,
Coexistence with Love in a union that’s sure. Surely..

Chorus

So sure, so sure.
