| He [Jesus] put them all out, and TOOK HER by the HAND, and called, saying, Maid, arise. And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway. (Luke 8:54‑55) |
| Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick of a fever; and anon they tell Him of her. And He came and TOOK HER by the HAND, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her. (Mark 1:30‑31) |
Still our Savior stands besides us;
Still His HAND is stretched to raise;
And the touch, the touch of Jesus,
Bears the soul through woeful days. |
Oh, that wondrous touch of Jesus!
How it soothes us! How it thrills!
How from countless ills it frees us!
How our heart with rapture fills! |
