42. The Great Physician Now Is Near

P.M.
1
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 carol ever sung,
 
Sweetest name on mortal tongue,
 
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
2
Your many sins are all forgiven;
 
Oh, hear the voice of Jesus;
 
Go on your way in peace to heaven,
 
And wear a crown with Jesus.
3
All glory to the risen Lamb!
 
I now believe in Jesus;
 
I love the blessed Savior’s name,
 
I love the name of Jesus.
4
His name dispels my guilt and fear,
 
No other name but Jesus;
 
Oh, how my soul delights to hear
 
The precious name of Jesus.
5
The children, too, both great and small,
 
Who love the name of Jesus,
 
May now accept the gracious call
 
To work and live for Jesus.
