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!
2
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.
3
All glory to the dying Lamb!
  I now believe in Jesus;
I love the blessed Savior's name,
  I love the name of Jesus.
4
His name dispels my guilt and fear,
  No other name but Jesus;
Oh, how my soul delights to hear
  The precious name of Jesus!

Your sins' heavy burden, too;

Now He wants to heal you;

Quickly come to Jesus.

If you will come to Jesus!

When conscience smites, you'll peace be giv'n

When you draw near to Jesus!

All find their cure in Jesus;

The living water He'll supply;

Oh, come draw near to Jesus!

Jesus! I have Jesus!

6. My gracious Savior's name's so dear;

The name I love is Jesus!

Jesus! Precious Jesus!

Brought face to face with Jesus,
