15891. Jesus, Thy Name Declares

1 Jesus, Thy name declares
Thy work and Thy delight;
To numerous sick Thou gavest health
And to the blind their sight.

2 The man with withered hand
Implored relief from Thee;
That hand made whole, was stretchèd forth
In thankfulness to Thee.

3 The lame are made to walk,
The deaf and dumb to speak;
The graves Thy high command obey,
And lo, the dead awake!

4 The same Thy power and grace,
My wants and griefs the same;
Speak, Lord, and I shall be restored,
Thy wonders to proclaim.
