393. O Precious Saviour, Heal and Bless

1 O precious Saviour, heal and bless
The suff'rers in affliction.
Thou knowest, Lord, their helplessness;
Look down in benediction
Upon the sick who seek Thine aid,
Let them in faith, all unafraid,
Rest in Thy tender mercy.

2 "Remember them that are in bonds,"
Thy Word so gently pleadeth,
Thy mercy to our prayers responds,
Thy kindness intercedeth.
Fill us with love, Thou Love divine,
Toward all who in affliction pine,
Let us reflect Thy patience.

3 O dearest Lord, remember those
In bonds of dread diseases;
Incarnate God, Thy wisdom knows
The balsam that releases.
Thou Sufferer of Calvary,
Let these afflicted hide in Thee,
And in Thy wounds find healing.

Amen.
