Jesus, the patient's surest friend

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CCX (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the patient's surest friend, Will ever to his case attend; He was in all, like man distress'd, And bore the curse to make us bless'd. 2 In all afflictions we must bear, We are the objects of his care; Tho' we are made to feel the rod, It is to draw us nearer God. 3 Sure we have reason to believe, He knows the time when to relieve; When to remove distress and pain, And to restore our health again. 4 He guards us with his watchful eye, While we do live, and when we die; His word and promises are sure, Nor can thy fail for ever more. 5 If thus the Sons of God we be, We must not seek from him to flee, When his afflicting hand we feel, We must submit unto his will. 6 What tho' we suffer for a while, Distress, and grief, and pain, and toil: Since ev'ry rod and ev'ry smart, Is to remorse the hard'ned heart. 7 Then ye distress'd be not afraid, Nor let your minds be so dismay'd; Christ your physician makes you whole, Can cure the body and the soul.
