When Jesus hath a sinner heal’d,
He will the healing word repeat,
Again confirm the pardon seal’d
To all who tremble at his feet:
“Be heal’d,” he every moment saith,
In effluxes of gracious power,
And while he speaks, we live by faith,
Go on in peace, and sin no more.
When Jesus hath a sinner healed
