Author: Hardwicke D. Rawnsley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 31 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God, whose will is life and good
for all of mortal breath,
unite in bonds of servanthood
all those who strive with death.
2 Make strong their hands and hearts and wills
to drive disease afar,
to strive against the body's ills
and wage your healing war.
3 By healing of the sick and blind,
Christ's mercy they proclaim,
make known the great Physician's mind,
affirm the Savior's name.
4 Before them set your gracious will,
that they, with heart and soul,
to you may consecrate their skill
and make the sufferer whole. Topics: God in Society Sickness and Healing; Healing, Physical; Jesus Christ Physician; God Providence; Inner Healing; Physical Healing; Jesus Christ Physician; Missions; Science Scripture: Acts 3:6 Used With Tune: CRIMOND
