The Great Physician

Appears in 13 hymnals Scripture: Luke 6:19 First Line: Ye mourning sinners, here disclose Lyrics: I. Ye mourning sinners, here disclose Your deep complaints, your various woes; Approach, 'tis Jesus, he can heal The pains which mourning sinners feel. II. To eyes long clos'd in mental night, Strangers to all the joys of light, His word imparts a blissful ray: Sweet morning of celestial day! III. Ye helpless lame, lift up your eyes, The Lord, the Saviour bids you rise; New life and strength his voice conveys, And plaintive groans are chang'd for praise. IV. Nor shall the leper, hopeless lie Beneath the Great Physician's eye; Sin's deepest pow'r his word controuls, That fatal leprosy of souls. V. That hand divine, which can asswage The burning fever's restless rage; That hand, omnipotent and kind, Can cool the fever of the mind. VI. When freezing palsy chills the veins, And pale, cold death, already reigns, He speaks; the vital pow'rs revive: He speaks, and dying sinners live. VII. Dear Lord, we wait thy healing hand; Diseases fly at thy command: O let thy sov'reign touch impart Life, strength, and health to ev'ry heart! VIII. Then shall the sick, the blind, the lame, Adore their Great Physician's name; Then dying souls shall bless their God, And spread thy wond'rous praise abroad.

When I survey the wondrous cross

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,989 hymnals Scripture: Luke 6:21 Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross on which the Prince of Glory died, my richest gain I count but loss, and pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, save in the death of Christ, my God: all the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to his blood. 3 See from his head, his hands, his feet, sorrow and love flow mingling down: did e'er such love and sorrow meet, or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 Were the whole realm of nature mine, that were an off'ring far too small; love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my all.
