36. The Great Physician

1 The great Physician now is near—
The sympathizing Jesus;
He speaks the drooping heart to cheer—
O hear the voice of Jesus!

Refrain:
Sweetest note in seraph song,
Sweetest name on mortal tongue,
Sweetest carol ever sung—
Jesus, blessed Jesus!

2 Your many sins are all forgiv'n—
O hear the voice of Jesus;
Go on your way in peace to heav'n,
And wear a crown with Jesus. [Refrain]

3 All glory to the dying Lamb—
I now believe in Jesus;
I love the blessed Savior's name,
I love the name of Jesus. [Refrain]

4 And when to that bright world above,
We rise to see our Jesus,
We'll sing around the throne of love
His name, the name of Jesus. [Refrain]
