THE GREAT PHYSICIAN










  • The Great Physician now is near,

  •   The sympathizing Jesus;

  • He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,

  •   Oh, hear the voice of Jesus!

    • Sweetest note in seraph song;

    • Sweetest name on mortal tongue;

    • Sweetest carol ever sung:


    •     Jesus, blessed Jesus!
  • Your many sins are all forgiv’n,

  •   Oh, hear the voice of Jesus;

  • The veil ’twixt you and God is riven,

  •   Redemption wrought by Jesus.

  • All glory to the dying Lamb!

  •   I now believe in Jesus;

  • I love the blessed Savior’s name,

  •   I love the name of Jesus.

  • His name dispels my guilt and fear,

  •   No other name but Jesus;

  • Oh, how my soul delights to hear

  •   The precious name of Jesus!

  • MY JESUS I LOVE THEE











    My Jesus, I Love Thee

    Text: William R. Featherstone
    Music: Adoniram J. Gordon

    1. My Jesus, I love thee, I know thou art mine; 
     for thee all the follies of sin I resign.  
     My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art thou; 
     if ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.  
    
    2. I love thee because thou hast first loved me, 
     and purchased my pardon on Calvary's tree; 
     I love thee for wearing the thorns on thy brow; 
     if ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.  
    
    3. In mansions of glory and endless delight; 
     I'll ever adore thee in heaven so bright; 
     I'll sing with the glittering crown on my brow; 
     if ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.  
    



    O CHRIST IN THEE MY SOUL HATH FOUND








    1. O Christ, in Thee my soul hath found,

    2.   And found in Thee alone,

    3. The peace, the joy I sought so long,

    4.   The bliss till now unknown.

      • Now none but Christ can satisfy,

      •   None other name for me;

      • There’s love and life and lasting joy,

      •     Lord Jesus, found in Thee.

    5. I sighed for rest and happiness,

    6.   I yearned for them, not Thee;

    7. But, while I passed my Savior by,

    8.   His love laid hold on me.

    9. I tried the broken cisterns, Lord,

    10.   But, ah, the waters failed!

    11. E’en as I stooped to drink they fled,

    12.   And mocked me as I wailed.

    13. The pleasures lost I sadly mourned,

    14.   But never wept for Thee,

    15. Till grace the sightless eyes received,

    16.   Thy loveliness to see.

    I AM COMING TO THE CROSS


                                   


    William McDonald, 1870   

    Scripture: Galatians 2:20


    MORE ABOUT JESUS




                             

    1. More about Jesus would I know,
      More of His grace to others show;
      More of His saving fullness see,
      More of His love who died for me.
      • Refrain:
        More, more about Jesus,
        More, more about Jesus;
        More of His saving fullness see,
        More of His love who died for me.
    2. More about Jesus let me learn,
      More of His holy will discern;
      Spirit of God, my teacher be,
      Showing the things of Christ to me.
    3. More about Jesus, in His Word,
      Holding communion with my Lord;
      Hearing His voice in every line,
      Making each faithful saying mine.
    4. More about Jesus on His throne,
      Riches in glory all His own;
      More of His kingdom’s sure increase;
      More of His coming, Prince of Peace.


    Eliza E. Hewittpub.1887

    HOW I PRAISE THEE



    1. How I praise Thee, precious Savior,
        That Thy love laid hold of me;
      Thou hast saved and cleansed and filled me,
        That I might Thy channel be.
      • Channels only, blessed Master,
          But with all Thy wondrous grace,
        Flowing through us, Thou canst use us
            Every hour in every place.
    2. Just a channel, full of blessing,
        To the thirsty hearts around;
      To tell out Thy full salvation,
        All Thy loving message sound.
    3. Emptied that Thou shouldest fill me,
        A clean vessel in Thine hand;
      With no strength but as Thou givest
        Graciously with each command.
    4. Witnessing Thy grace to save me,
        Setting free from self and sin;
      Thou hast bought me to possess me,
        In Thy fulness, Lord, come in.
    5. O Lord, fill now with Thy Spirit
        Hearts that full surrender know;
      That the streams of living water
        From our inner man may flow.

    SING THEM OVER AGAIN TO ME.

      PHILP P BLISS
