(Verse 1)
When shadows fall, and futures seem unclear
A chilling diagnosis, whispering of fear
My body weakened, spirit feeling worn
A faith tested, from the moment I was born
But in my heart, a truth I'd always known
A sacred power, from a heavenly throne
The priesthood promised, a blessing for my soul
To make the wounded spirit, somehow whole.
(Chorus)
Oh, the power of the Priesthood, a touch divinely given
A conduit of mercy, a direct line to Heaven
Through humble hands, a word of faith declared
A Father's love, magnificently shared
It was there that night, when hope began to fade
The quiet promise, fear was not afraid
A sacred ordinance, binding earth and sky
A miracle unfolded, before the Father's eye.
(Verse 2)
They came in service, with oil and solemn prayer
Their voices lifted, on the hallowed air
No show of power, no thunder from above
Just simple faith, and overflowing love
For I had learned, in lessons long ago
This holy power, in humble hearts does flow
A strength to comfort, to guide and to restore
To open windows, to what lies in store.
(Chorus)
Oh, the power of the Priesthood, a touch divinely given
A conduit of mercy, a direct line to Heaven
Through humble hands, a word of faith declared
A Father's love, magnificently shared
It was there that night, when hope began to fade
The quiet promise, fear was not afraid
A sacred ordinance, binding earth and sky
A miracle unfolded, before the Father's eye.
(Bridge)
It's not just healing, though that's a mighty part
It’s knowing God is with us, a compass for the heart
It's recognizing promptings, the Spirit's gentle call
And serving others, lest a brother fall
A circle unbroken, where each can play their role
From simple service, to making spirits whole
We are peculiar, perhaps, in what we hold so dear
But in this priesthood, God's true love shines clear.
(Chorus)
Oh, the power of the Priesthood, a touch divinely given
A conduit of mercy, a direct line to Heaven
Through humble hands, a word of faith declared
A Father's love, magnificently shared
It was there that night, when hope began to fade
The quiet promise, fear was not afraid
A sacred ordinance, binding earth and sky
A miracle unfolded, before the Father's eye.
(Outro)
So let my testimony ring, for all the world to hear
That God is watchful, and His help is ever near
Through holy priesthood, blessings still descend
A faithful Father's love, until the very end.
Just ask for help, He’s waiting there for you.
His endless love, forever strong and true.
