[Verse]
Ab Db Ab
A hand of fear gripped the crowd, that day at Jairus' home
Eb Ab
When the doctor shook his head and said she's gone
Ab
You could feel that mother's heart break
Db Ab
You could hear them cry and mourn
Eb Ab
Their little girl was only twelve years old
Ab
Somewhere in the distance
Db Ab
Outlined against the sun
Eb Ab
There came a Man on a mission from the throne
Ab
They said "look somebody's coming"
Db Ab
But what they did not know
Eb Ab
It was their Promise coming down that dusty road
[Chorus]
Ab
There's a Promise coming down that dusty road
Eb
From His holy hand healing virtue flows
Ab
He's got the keys to what you need
Db Ab
Death and hell He will defeat
Eb Ab
There's a Promise coming down that dusty road
[Verse]
Am
The wonder turned to mocking
D Am
When Jesus did speak
E Am
'Cause He said your daughter's not dead She's just asleep
Am
Then He turned to the unbelievers
D Am
And He told them all "go home"
Am E Am
They heard Him say "Leave Me and death alone."
Am
And then He laid His hand upon the child
D A
And He looked death right in the eye
A
He said, "All power in Heaven
E
and earth it belongs to me"
A
And with a voice that sounds like thunder
D A
He hurled death asunder
E D
He said "my child rise and be healed"
[Chorus]
Ab
There's a Promise coming down that dusty road
Eb
From His holy hand healing virtue flows
Ab
He's got the keys to what you need
Db Ab
Death and hell He will defeat
Eb Ab
There's a Promise coming down that dusty road
