The Great Physician now is near, 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! |

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. |

All glory to the dying Lamb! 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! |

We rise to see our Jesus,
We’ll sing around the throne of love
