Composed by Z. A. Ogunsanya Date: 12/5/2016 Translation to Yoruba at intercity Hotel Magdeburg Germany 27/5/2016.
- Take far-away Lord, sickness and disease
And all spiritual ailments, from my life
Make me to be strong, and very healthy
Bless me with Your health, and make me whole.
Chorus:
Unless You make me whole, Satan will oppress me
Unless You make me whole, my life will not settle
Unless You make me whole, I cannot be who I ought to be
But, if You make me whole Jesus, it shall be well with me
Therefore, come and make me whole, Lord make me whole
Dear Lord, Jesus come and make me whole now
And let me live in peace.
-
Exodus fifteen, in verse twenty-six
You will put none of disease, of Egypt
Upon my body, is what You promised
For you are the Lord, that healeth me. -
By Your stripes oh Lord, You have made us whole
Sickness has no right therefore, in my life
Command sicknesses, and all diseases
To stay away Lord, now from my life. -
Just like other men, who were in the world
You suffered temptation and, real hardship
But one thing is sure, You were never sick
Give me the same grace, and make me whole. -
Apaphroditus, and many others
In the New Testament were, sometimes sick
But when they call u-pon You, You healed them
In the same way Lord, make me whole now. -
Your word also says, I wish above all
That you may prosper and be, in good health
Just like your soul is, prosperous today
Bring Your word to pass, and make me whole. -
Sickness and disease, are not gifts from you
They have nothing good to do, in my life
Make me free from them, all days of my life
That I may serve You, in healthiness. -
In the Bible days, both saints and sinners
Who sought Your help for healing, You healed them
With the same mercy, with which You heal them
Come quickly my Lord, and make me whole. -
You sent Your word and, You delivered them
From all their sicknesses and, diseases
Send now the same word, into my systems
In spirit, soul, bo-dy make me whole.
