Lyrics
Whoa, there was a woman in the Bible days
Introduction to a woman from Bible days
She had been sick,
Describing her prolonged illness
Sick so very long
Emphasizing the duration of her sickness
But she heard 'bout Jesus was passin' by
Learning about Jesus passing by
So she joined the gathering throng
Joining a gathering to see Jesus
And while she was pushing her way through
Attempting to approach Jesus
Someone asked her "what are you trying to do?"
Questioned about her intentions
She said "if I could just touch the hem of his garment I know I'll be made whole"
Expressing faith that touching Jesus' garment will bring healing
She cried "Oh Lord" (Oh Lord)
Repetition of her plea to touch Jesus' garment for healing
And "Oh Lord" (Oh Lord)
-"Oh Lord Oh Lord" (Oh Lord)
-And "Oh Lord" (Oh Lord)
-Said "If I could just touch the hem of his garment I know I'll be made whole"
-And whoa, she spent her money
Describing the woman's financial sacrifices for medical treatment
Here and there
-Until she had no,
-Had no more to spare
-The doctors, they done all they could
Highlighting the ineffectiveness of medical treatments
But their medicine would do no good
-When she touched him, the savior didn't see
Narrating the moment when the woman touches Jesus without him seeing
But still he turned around and cried "somebody touched me"
-She said "it was I who just wanna touch the hem of your garment
Woman confessing her action to Jesus
I know I'll be made whole right now"
Reiterating her belief in immediate healing through touching Jesus' garment
She stood there cryin' "Oh Lord" (Oh Lord)
Repetition of the woman's cries and expression of faith
"Oh Lord" and "Oh Lord" (Oh Lord)
-"Oh Lord" (Oh Lord)
-And "Oh Lord" (Oh Lord)
-Said "if I could just touch the hem of your garment
-I know I'll be made whole right now"
Final affirmation of the woman's confidence in immediate healing
