89. Oh, I Know the Lord Laid His Hands on Me

Refrain:
Oh, I know the Lord, I know the Lord,
I know the Lord laid his hands on me.

1 Did ever you see the like before?
I know the Lord laid his hands on me,
King Jesus preaching to the poor.
I know the Lord laid his hands on me. [Refrain]

2 Oh, wasn't that a happy day,
I know the Lord laid his hands on me,
when Jesus washed my sins away!
I know the Lord laid his hands on me. [Refrain]

3 My Lord has done just what he said,
I know the Lord laid his hands on me,
he healed the sick and raised the dead.
I know the Lord laid his hands on me. [Refrain]
