Story Behind the Song
Having suffered many years from chronic back pain, on the verge of surgery I ask the Lord when will I be whole?
Lyrics
A long time, Lord I've laid beside these waters,
And all the while, God I'm waiting to be healed
I watched the others come and leave with their healing
Lord I ask you, will it soon be my day?
(chorus)
Angel of God, could you come and stir the water,
My weary body is so ready to be healed
Where's the stirring of the "Pool of Bethesda",
Lord I'm looking for the way,
And I know Jesus, if I could get into the water,
I would never be the same
I wanna hear the words, "Pick up your mat and walk child",
Will I hear these words today?
Stir the "Pool of Bethesda."
