The verse:
A woman had an issue with her blood 12 years
And the doctors she did visit couldn't quell her fears
She had spent all of her money as physicians cared
But they could not give her help because she was impaired


Then she saw a crowd with Jesus and she thought to go
Where she could crawl right up behind him and he wouldn't know
When she would reach out to His garment and caress its hem
Thinking it would make her well and make her whole again


So she crept right up behind and then she bent and kneeled
Lightly touching on the garment's hem and she was healed
Then the Saviour said “Who touched me?” and He looked about
For he felt that from His spirit something had gone out


Then did Peter tell the Master, he did ask aloud
About a single person touching, 'cause this was a crowd
So then Jesus said to Peter, 'fore they traveled on
That someone in need had touched him, there was virtue gone


Then the woman came up to Him, at His feet she fell
And she testified how touching Him had made her well
Then the Savior called her daughter comforting her soul
And he told her that indeed her faith had made her whole.
