O Christ, the Healer, we have come

O Christ, the Healer, we have come
O Christ, the healer, we have come
Author: Frederick Pratt Green (1903-2000) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #717 (2005) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: 2 Kings 5:1-14 Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the healer, we have come
to pray for health, to plead for friends.
How can we fail to be restored,
when reached by love that never ends?
2 From every ailment flesh endures
our bodies clamour to be freed;
yet in our hearts we would confess
that wholeness is our deepest need.
3 How strong, O Lord, are our desires,
how weak our knowledge of ourselves!
Release in us those healing truths
unconscious pride resists or shelves.
4 In conflicts that destroy our health
we diagnose the world's disease;
our common life declares our ills:
is there no cure, O Christ, for these?
5 Grant that we all, made one in faith,
in your community may find
the wholeness that, enriching us,
shall reach the whole of humankind. Topics: The Church Celebrates; The Church Celebrates Wholeness and Healing; Suffering; Unity of Humanity Languages: English Tune Title: ANGELUS

Wash, O God, Our Sons and Daughters
Go Wash in the Beautiful Stream
Author: Charles A. Tindley Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #224 (2024) Scripture: 2 Kings 5 First Line: Now Naaman the leper, that hon'rable man Lyrics: 1. Now Naaman the leper, that hon'rable man,
A captain of Syria's guard,
Was badly afflicted and covered by rash,
But favored in sight of the Lord.
Oh my! what a sight; disease made him white;
No doctor could help him he'd seen;
He never did pray
And knew not the way
To wash in the beautiful stream.
Go wash in the beautiful stream,
Go wash in the beautiful stream;
O Naaman, O Naaman, go down and wash,
Go wash in the beautiful stream.
2. He heard of a man in the Israelite land
A woman had told him about;
I'll go if I can, thus he said to his friends,
For he may relieve me, no doubt.
He went and he called the prophet of God;
Elisha refused to be seen,
But offered his care
And sent him down there
To wash in the beautiful stream. [Refrain]
3. So Naaman raged on, and the servant had gone
Whom 'lisha had sent to the door;
He did not believe what he had just received,
Instructions for his perfect cure;
He tho't waters flowing in his own land
Were better because they were clean;
'Twas just about night,
He got in the light
And plunged in the beautiful stream. [Refrain]
4. Now sinner, O sinner, are you not the same
As Naaman, that strong Syrian?
Your sickness, it injures both body and soul
And makes you feel loathsome and mean;
You feel you are lost, but turn to the cross,
And Jesus will then make you clean.
All those who are sick,
Be humble and quick,
And wash in the beautiful stream. [Refrain] Topics: Ordinary Time Week 9 Languages: English Tune Title: BEAUTIFUL STREAM

Before the Dawn Had Broken
Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Hymnal: Faith That Lets Us Sing #22 (2017) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: 2 Kings 5:1-14 Lyrics: 1 Before the dawn had broken,
before God's lamp was spent,
a boy heard someone calling
and wondered what it meant.
The old priest reassured him,
so Samuel, without fear,
said, ""God, your servant listens,
and waits, your word to hear.""
2 A young lad went to battle
a giant ten feet tall,
while others watched and trembled,
and thought to see him fall.
Said David, ""God protects me;
I come in God's own name.""
God helped him save the people,
by faith make good his claim.
3 The soldier was a leper
who thought his doom was sure,
but then a young girl told him,
"God's prophet has a cure."
She sent him to Elisha
who showed him what to do.
and he, made whole and healthy,
saw he could trust God too.
4 The multitude was hungry.
“We have no food,” they said.
A little boy came forward
to share his fish and bread.
“It is enough,” said Jesus,
“this gift of love will last.”
He blessed the loaves and fishes,
and no one had to fast.
5 A child becomes a prophet,
a shepherd boy a king,
a maid, a means of healing.
a boy, of offering.
May we have faith like children,
like them come to believe
that when we trust love’s power
great blessings we receive.
