The song you're thinking of is Ray Lewis's gospel track It Happened. It was one of the first gospel songs he ever wrote (after previously writing country music) and is also his most famous.
The song was written in the mid-sixties and first recorded by Lewis's favorite band, The Happy Goodman Family.

Lyrics to It Happened by Ray Lewis It Happened, like He said, As He cleansed the lepers and raised the dead, Fed the five thousand with five loaves of bread. Then He said, "Greater things than this shall ye do, For I go to make the intercession for you," And it happened, just like He said. On the Sea Of Galilee a storm prevailed, But the Lord arose and said, "Peace be still" And it happened, just like He said. Those round about said what sort of man Rebukes the elements and they understand, And it happens, just like He said. It Happened, like He said, As He cleansed the lepers and raised the dead, Fed the five thousand with five loaves of bread. Then He said, "Greater things than this shall ye do, For I go to make the intercession for you," And it happened, just like He said. Blind Bartimaeus cried out by the road, Jesus said, "Your faith has made you whole." And it happened, just like He said. Jesus said, "What do you want from me?" Bartimaeus cried, "Lord, that I might see." And it happened, just like He said. It Happened, like He said, As He cleansed the lepers and raised the dead, Fed the five thousand with five loaves of bread. Then He said, "Greater things than this shall ye do, For I go to make the intercession for you," And it happened, just like He said. Jesus said, "Surely I must go away, But if I go, I'm coming back some day," And it'll happen, just like He said. "I go to prepare a place for you, That where I am, you can be, too," And it'll happen, just like He said.
