And is no kind Physician nigh, To ease the pain and heal the wound, Ere life and hope forever fly? 4 There is a great Physician near; Look up. O fainting soul, and live: See, in his heavenly smiles appear Such ease as nature cannot give! 5 See, in the Saviour's dying blood, Life, health, and bliss. abundant flow; 'Tis only this dear sacred flood Can ease thy pain and heal thy wo.

How lost was my condition

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #169 (1828) Meter: Irregular Topics: Names and Characters of Christ Physician Lyrics: 1 How lost was my condition, Till JESUS made me whole! There is but one physician, Can cure a sin-sick soul!-- The worst of all diseases Is light compar'd with sin; On ev'ry part it seizes, But rages most within. 2 From men great skill professing, I thought a cure to gain; But this prov'd more distressing, And added to my pain-- Some said that nothing ail'd me, Some gave me up for lost, Thus every refuge fail'd me, And all my hopes were cross'd. 3 At length this great Physician-- How matchless is his grace! Accepted my petition, And undertook my case-- Next door to death he found me, And snatch'd me from the grave; To tell to all around me, His wondrous power to save. 4 A dying, risen JESUS, Seen by the eye of faith, At once from danger frees us, And saves the soul from death-- Come then to this Physician, His help he'll freely give, He makes no hard condition, 'Tis only--look--and live.

Hosanna was sung to David, we hear; But soon he was forced into Adullam’s cave, And thousands pursued him his life to bereave. 3 To Adullam’s cave the wretched all run; Which David must have, their captain become; And thus he is furnished with men, to be sure, But, O be astonished! they’re helpless and poor.] 4 In David I see a greater by far; ’Tis Jesus, ’tis he who saves from despair; No sinner dejected that flees to the Lamb, Shall e’er be neglected, for David’s his name.
