143. Passing This Way

1 Jesus of Naz’reth, to Bethlehem came,
Healing the blind, the sick and the lame;
Oh, it was wonderful, blest be his name!
Still he is passing by.

Refrain:
Passing this way, passing this way,
Jesus is passing this way;
Oh, it was wonderful, blest be his name,
Still he is passing by.

2 Jesus of Naz’reth, the same as of old,
When a stray sheep away from the fold,
Gently and long he hath sought for my soul;
Still he is passing by. [Refrain]

3 Jesus of Naz’reth, on Calvary’s tree,
Shed his dear blood and set my soul free;
Oh, it was wonderful, how could it be?
Still he is passing by. [Refrain]
