Song lyrics

[Serena:]
(kneeling)
Oh, doctor Jesus, who done trouble de water in de sea of Galilee

[Porgy:]
Amen!

[Serena:]
An' likewise who done cas' de devil out of de afflicted
Time an' time again

[Porgy:]
Time an' time again

[Peter:]
Oh, my Jesus!

[Serena:]
Oh, doctor Jesus, what make you ain' lay yo' han' on dis po'
Sister head?

[Lily:]
Oh, my father!

[Serena:]
An' chase de devil out of her down a steep place into de sea
Like you used to do time an' time again

[Porgy:]
Time an' time again
Oh, my Jesus!

[Serena:]
Lif' dis po' cripple up out of de dus'!

[Porgy:]
Allelujah!

[Serena:]
An' lif' up his woman an' make her well time an' time again
An' save us all for Jesus sake, amen

[Porgy and Peter:]
Amen

[Serena:]
All right now, porgy, doctor Jesus done take de case
By five o'clock dat woman goin' be well
