Hymnal: The Book of Praise #747 (1997) Scripture: Jeremiah 8:22 First Line: Sometimes I feel discouraged Lyrics: Refrain:
There is a balm in Gilead
to make the wounded whole.

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,
who, if you lack for knowledge,
will never fail to lend. [Refrain]

if you cannot pray like Paul,
you can tell the love of Jesus,
who died to save us all. [Refrain] Topics: Discouragement / Despair; Evangelism; Healing / Health; Holy Spirit; Jesus Christ Friend; One Life in Christ Peace; Renewal / Revival; Spirituals Languages: English Tune Title: BALM IN GILEAD
