Representative Text

1 O weary burdened souls opprest,
Come to the Great Physician,
He longs to heal and give you rest,
He feels your sad condition.

Chorus:
Then come quickly away,
He knows and pities your sorrow,
No longer delay, but seek Him today,
O why do you wait the morrow.

2 Behold, He now is passing by,
Come to the Great Physician,
He left His Father's throne on high,
To help your sad condition. [Chorus]

3 O hear the warning voice within,
Come to the Great Physician,
His blood will cleanse from ev'ry sin,
And change your sad condition. [Chorus]

4 With His dear name your only plea,
Come to the Great Physician,
No pow'r but His can make you free
From this your sad condition. [Chorus]
