Hymnal: Total Praise #514 (2011) Meter: 7.6.7.6 with refrain First Line: Sometimes I feel discouraged Refrain First Line: There is a balm in Gilead Lyrics: Refrain:
There is a balm in Gilead
To make the wounded whole;
There is a balm in Gilead
To heal the sin-sick soul.
1 Sometimes I feel discouraged
And think my work’s in vain,
But then the Holy Spirit
Revives my soul again. [Refrain]
2 Don’t ever be discouraged,
For Jesus is your friend;
And if you lack for knowledge,
He’ll ne'er refuse to lend. [Refrain]
3 If you cannot preach like Peter,
If you cannot pray like Paul,
You can tell the love of Jesus,
And say, “He died for all!” [Refrain] Topics: Assurance; Comfort; Healing; Holy Spirit; Jesus Christ Friend; Jesus Christ Savior; Renewal and Revival; Sin; Spirituals; Testimony, Witness, Evangelism; Wisdom Scripture: Jeremiah 8:22 Languages: English Tune Title: BALM IN GILEAD
