1 One day when Jesus had healed the sick and raised the dead,
There came a woman, for years afflicted sore, who said:
“If I may but of His garment touch, I shall be whole,”
And Jesus comforting said, “Thy faith hath made thee whole.”
Refrain:
“Thy faith hath made thee whole,
Thy faith hath made thee whole;”
O words of life and love,
That sin’s dark stains remove,
That heal the blighting woe,
And life for death bestow!
Bring ev’ry burden, suff’ring soul,
And hear the Master kindly say,
“Thy faith hath made thee whole.”
2 When blind Bartimeus beginning sat, to Jericho nigh,
He heard that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by,
And cried, “Have mercy on me, Thou Son of David, save!”
When Jesus heard of his faith, to him his sight he gave. [Refrain]
3 To ye who carry the marks of sin, whose souls are blind,
The invitation is giv’n to full deliv’rance find;
This mighty Jesus, the great Physician, passeth by,
If ye will call on His mercy, He will hear your cry. [Refrain]
