The Great Physician now is near

1
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!

I'm really delighted to find this song online as I've longed to know the wordings of this song as its my best song from childhood in my native dialect. It's a very comforting song and it's so reassuring to know Jesus feels for me always. I'm highly privileged. Thanks so much for making it available.

I love the your version of it. The greatest Physician is always around us and all we need to do is to open our heart for Him to perform that miracle that we desire. I love the song.

This song is a prophetic song; makes me relax and more confident most especially when I have some kind of heavy heart; It recalls my consciousness that I am not alone that the Sympathizing Jesus is near... So no matter what you are going through know that you are not alone... Be blessed as you listen and sing this song.

I started singing the chorus of this hymn while praying this morning. I just know it is God speaking to me through it because it just came out like that. I thank the Almighty God for giving me this hymn.
