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

3 His name dispels my guilt and fear,
No other name but Jesus;
O how my soul delights to hear
The charming name of Jesus. [Refrain]
