The Great Physician now is near,
The sympathizing Jesus;
He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,
Oh, hear the voice of Jesus!
The sympathizing Jesus;
He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,
Oh, hear the voice of Jesus!
Sweetest note in seraph song;
Sweetest name on mortal tongue;
Sweetest carol ever sung:
Jesus, blessed Jesus!
Sweetest name on mortal tongue;
Sweetest carol ever sung:
Jesus, blessed Jesus!

Your many sins are all forgiv’n,
Oh, hear the voice of Jesus;
The veil ’twixt you and God is riven,
Redemption wrought by Jesus.
Oh, hear the voice of Jesus;
The veil ’twixt you and God is riven,
Redemption wrought by Jesus.

All glory to the dying Lamb!
I now believe in Jesus;
I love the blessed Savior’s name,
I love the name of Jesus.
I now believe in Jesus;
I love the blessed Savior’s name,
I love the name of Jesus.

His name dispels my guilt and fear,
No other name but Jesus;
Oh, how my soul delights to hear
The precious name of Jesus!
No other name but Jesus;
Oh, how my soul delights to hear
The precious name of Jesus!

I've been singing this hymn since 1985 when I became born again. It's a brand new spiritual experience as I sang it this morning again.

This song was sung in our church service today and everywhere was charged with the power of the Holy Spirit for healing. Thank God for the inspiration for this golden oldie; and glory to God for the vessels God used to pen down the song. Hallelujah!

This hymn is very dear to me, especially when I get " O how my soul delights to hear the precious name of Jesus" I will be shedding tears. Glory be to the name Jesus.

I have been sick, off and on since January 2024. I finally submitted myself for a thorough check. The outcome of my test results was not good. I was worried and didn't know what to do, since the pain I was going through is excruciating. Then on Sunday night July 7th, I had a dream where we were singing this song. I woke up singing it, but couldn't remember the wordings/lyrics correctly. I started searching for the song since the only part I remembered on waking up was "Jesus blessed Jesus". I googled it and found the lyrics. Since then I have sang it every morning and night and I discover that I am gradually getting back to my feet and the pains have disappeared. Indeed, the great Physician is now is near! I am healed. Thanks for this song, may the Lord bless you for uploading it here.
