1. The first was at a wedding
Where he turned water into wine
And all present agreed
The wine was absolutely fine.
2. Then at Cana of Galilee
He healed a noble man’s son,
3. Next, he cast out an evil spirit
Also at Capernaum.
4. Peter’s mother-in-law was sick
And Jesus was the cure,
In no time she was up
And going about her chores.
5. On one particular evening
He healed a lot of people
6. Then on the Lake Gennesaret
He did the first fishing miracle.
7. Next, he cleansed a leper
8. And after, a centurion’s servant
9. Then the suspended paralytic
Hanging from ropes like a pendant.
10. Next, Jesus healed a man
That had a withered hand
And though it was on the Sabbath
“Doing good” was Jesus’ plan.
11. Next, he raised a widow’s son
12. And calmed a stormy sea
13. Then deliver demons into pigs
And the citizens responded angrily.
14. Then there was the woman
With the issue of blood,
15. Next, the raising of Jairus’ daughter
Done only as Jesus could.
16. Jesus healed two blind men
17. Then a man who could not speak,
18. Next, an invalid at Bethesda
19. And from little, 5000 plus did eat.
20. This man was possessed by a devil
He was both blind and dumb,
Jesus wonderfully healed him
But was said to be in league with Satan.
21. Next, he walked on water
22. Then healed many that were sick,
As each one touched his garment
He was healed; it was no trick.
23. He healed a Gentile girl
By a demon, she was possessed,
In response to Jesus’ challenge
Her mother’s faith passed the test.
24. He healed a deaf and dumb man
25. Then next it was the 4000 plus,
With seven loaves and a few fishes
He fed them without a fuss.
26. He healed a blind man at Bethsaida
Whom he touched a second time,
27. Quite unlike the next blind man
Where clay and spittle were fine.
28. A man brought his son to Jesus
Whom the disciples could not cure
But was Jesus able to heal him?
The answer to that is “sure”.
29. Then there was the temple tax
That was delivered by a fish,
Peter went down to collect it
And the tax collectors got their wish.
30. Then there was this woman
That was sick for eighteen years,
Jesus loosed her from her infirmity
Which she no longer had to bear.
31. Jesus healed a man with dropsy
32. And cleansed ten lepers too
33. Next, he raised Lazarus from the dead
34. And gave Bartimaeus a perfect view.
35. Just a word and a fig tree withered
36. Next, he restored a severed ear,
37. Then came the second fishing miracle:
Thirty-seven miracles that’s clear.
Perhaps, you can find another
That I may have overlooked...
Like the calming of the storm,
So I could check it in the Book.
The truth of the matter is:
There were many more miracles
For on more than one occasion
Jesus healed many people.
And, add to these His resurrection,
And his ascension too
As his disciples stood upward gazing,
Having such a remarkable view.
Then, of course, there is mine,
I have a miracle all my own,
If from sin Jesus has set you free
Such a miracle is not mine alone.
The salvation of a soul:
That is the greatest miracle today,
I implore you, my friend, believe in him
And let him have his way.
