O Christ, the healer
Author: Fred Pratt Green (b. 1903) Hymnal: Wonder, Love, and Praise #772 (1997) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: Wonder, Love, and Praise First Line: O Christ, the healer we have come Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the healer, we have come
to pray for health, to plead for friends.
How can we fail to be restored,
when reached by love that never ends?
2 From every ailment flesh endures
our bodies clamor to be freed;
yet in our hearts we would confess
that wholeness is our deepest need.
3 How strong, O Lord, are our desires,
how weak our knowledge of ourselves!
Release in us those healing truths
unconscious pride resists ourselves.
4 In conflicts that destroy our health
we recognize the world’s disease;
our common life declares our ills:
is there no cure, O Christ, for these?
5 Grant that we all, made in one faith,
in your community may find
the wholeness that, enriching us,
shall reach the whole of humankind. Topics: Hymns and Spiritual Songs Healing Languages: English Tune Title: KEDRON
