The Prince is ever in them, the daylight is serene; the tree of life and healing has leaves of richest green. 3 There is the throne of David, and there, from pain released, the shout of those who triumph, the song of those who feast. And all who with their leader have conquered in the fight, forever and forever are robed in purest white. 4 How lovely is that city, the home of God's elect! How beautiful the country that eager hearts expect! O Christ, in mercy bring us to that eternal shore where Father, Son, and Spirit are worshiped evermore.

All my trust on thee is stayed, all my help from thee I bring; cover my defenseless head with the shadow of thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want, more than all in thee I find: raise the fallen, cheer the faint, heal the sick and lead the blind. Just and holy is thy name; I am all unrighteousness; false and full of sin I am, thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with thee is found, grace to cover all my sin; let the healing streams abound; make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the fountain art; freely let me take of thee; spring thou up within my heart, rise to all eternity.

Behold his hands and side, the wounds of love that healed my brokenness. What God is this? What kind of sacrifice would give so much to gain a loveless soul? 3 For me, to live is Christ, to die is gain, for Christ has died that I might gain his life. He is my all, my joy, my righteousness, my hope of glory when he comes to reign. 4 Yes, suddenly, my God shall come again. And every knee shall bow before his name. And he shall reign forever on the throne. And in his glory there I shall proclaim: "Jesus is Lord! Jesus is Lord! Jesus is Lord! Jesus is Lord!"

Jesus Heard with Deep Compassion

Author: Joy F. Patterson, b. 1931 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus heard with deep compassion pleas for healing, cries of pain; cured the lame and cleansed the leper, gave the blind their sight again. At his voice, tormenting spirits fled a madman’s tortured mind; clothed and healed, he went rejoicing, home and family to find. 2 Jesus touched the lives of outcasts, weak or sinful, scorned or poor; gave them self respect and courage, trust and faith and hope secure. Truly hearing, truly seeing deep within each troubled soul, Jesus healed their wounded spirits, sent them forth with lives made whole. 3 Jesus, Lord, our true example, you have shown how we must live. Teach us how to share with others everything we have to give. Let our days be spent in service; bring us by your grace to know healing is the church’s calling, and the path that we must go.
