Verse 1
Almighty Redeemer of all,
To trouble and misery nigh,
Convinc’d, but unsav’d from our fall
On thee we desire to rely;
Thou lover and friend of mankind,
With joy we have heard of thy fame,
Thy mercy expecting to find
For ever and ever the same.
Verse 2
Thou didst the lost sinners receive,
The weary, o’erwhelm’d, and opprest,
Thou didst the afflicted relieve,
And give them assurance and rest:
With sins or infirmities pain’d,
Thy succour who humbly implor’d,
As many as sought it obtain’d,
As many as touch’d were restor’d.
Verse 3
Invited and urg’d to draw nigh,
We trust in a merciful God,
To thee the physician apply,
And wait for a drop of thy blood:
Thy blood can all sicknesses heal;
Its virtue, O Jesus, impart,
Our pardon infallibly seal,
And heaven implant in our heart.
