There is a balm in Gilead To make the wounded whole, There is a balm in Gilead To heal the sin-sick soul. 3 Don't ever feel discouraged, For Jesus is your friend; And if you lack for knowledge He'll ne'er refuse to lend. There is a balm in Gilead To make the wounded whole, There is a balm in Gilead To heal the sin-sick soul.
