Hymnal: JS2003 #723 (2003) Meter: 7.6.7.6 with refrain Tune Title: BALM IN GILEAD First Line: Sometimes I feel discouraged Lyrics: Refrain:
There is a balm in Gilead
to make the wounded whole,
there is a balm in Gilead
to heal the sin-sick soul.
1 Sometimes I feel discouraged,
And think my work’s in vain,
But then the Holy Spirit
Revives my soul again. [Refrain]
2 If you cannot preach like Peter,
If you cannot pray like Paul,
You can tell the love of Jesus,
And say, “He died for all.” [Refrain]
3 Don’t ever feel discouraged,
For Jesus is your friend;
And if you lack for knowledge,
He’ll ne'er refuse to lend. [Refrain] Topics: Comfort; Courage; Healing; Journey; Loneliness; Retreats; Sin; Trust; Comfort; Courage; Healing; Journey; Loneliness; Retreats; Sin; Trust; Comfort; Courage; Healing; Journey; Loneliness; Retreats; Sin; Trust Languages: English
