293. The Great Physician

1 The great Physician now is near,
The sympathizing Jesus,
He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,
O hear the voice of Jesus.

Refrain:
Sweetest note in seraph song,
Sweetest name on mortal tongue;
Sweetest carol ever sung,
Jesus, blessed Jesus.

2 Your many sins are all forgiven,
Oh! hear the voice of Jesus,
Go on your way in peace to heaven,
And wear a crown with Jesus. [Refrain]

3 All glory to the dying Lamb!
I now believe in Jesus;
I love the blessed Savior's name,
I love the name of Jesus. [Refrain]

4 His name dispels my guilt and fear,
No other name but Jesus;
Oh! how my soul delights to hear
The charming name of Jesus [Refrain]
