Story behind the song
Given to both writers by God
Lyrics
Verse 1:
Sickness plagued the woman…as if she had been cursed
And the touch of the physicians…had only made things worse
“Unclean!” is what they called her…and the taunts went on for years
But when she heard about the Savior…faith arose above her tears
So she set her heart on Jesus…and pressing through the crowd
She struggled on with all her strength, “I’ll touch his robe”, she vowed.
On through tangled masses…then she reached out to Him
Her weary hand brushed down His robe…and new life entered in
Chorus:
Just to touch the hem of His garment…Just to feel the edge of His robe
In the crowd would He even notice…the miracle she stole
Then to hear the sound of His voice…as He spoke so she would know
That her faith…her faith in Him… had made her whole
Verse 2:
“Who touched Me?” asked the Master…his disciples were surprised
For the crowd had grown around Him…pressing in on ev’ry side
Had she stolen from the Savior?…Had she robbed the King of Kings?
Would she feel His wrath or His favor…would His words bless or condemn?
Chorus
For she had touched the hem of His garment…
She had felt the edge of His robe
And she knew that mercy had fallen on her weary, wounded soul
And she heard the sound of His voice…as He spoke so she would know
That her faith…her faith in Him…had made her whole
Bridge:
Jesus loves the touch of faith…for it moves Him deep inside
Healing power and wond’rous grace…in Him alone abide
Chorus
Have you touched the hem of His garment?
Have you felt the edge of His robe?
Did you know that mercy is granted for stolen miracles?
Have you heard the sound of His voice?…as He speaks so you will know
That your faith…your faith in Him…will make you whole
Our faith…our faith in Him…will make us whole
