Rise Take Your Bed And Walk

Now I am walking in freedom Your joy fills my soul Because Jesus, my Savior Is making me whole There was a pool in Bethesda In John chapter five Where the hurting would gather Lame and paralyzed To stir up in the water An angel descends And the first one in the water His sickness ends There was a man laying there Sick 38 years He had no one to take him When the angel appears There was a man laying there Sick 38 years He had no one to take him When the angel appears Jesus asked him the question He asks us today Do you want to be made whole If yes, then He'll say Rise, take up your bed and walk You need not delay Standing before you is the Savior Our debt did He pay At once the man was healed He took his bed and walked away Jesus did it before He'll do it again today When we walk in the Spirit The flesh we don't heed 'Cause by following the Master We get victory The love, joy, peace and goodness They help us in the fight So we can stay out of darkness And walk in Heaven's light We'll be living with our Savior In a beautiful way And walking in His presence We joyfully stay We count it all joy Even if our trial's long Letting patience have her way As we sing our song Rise, take your bed and walk You need not delay Standing before you is the Savior Our debt did He pay You'll be living with your Savior In a beautiful way He's done it before He'll do it again today
