1 When Jesus the healer passed through Galilee,
Heal us, heal us today!
the deaf came to hear and the blind came to see.
Heal us, Lord Jesus!
2 A paralyzed man was let down through a roof.
Heal us, heal us today!
His sins were forgiven, his walking the proof.
Heal us, Lord Jesus!
3 The death of his daughter caused Jairus to weep.
Heal us, heal us today!
The Lord took her hand, and he raised her from sleep.
Heal us, Lord Jesus!
4 When blind Bartimaeus cried out to the Lord,
Heal us, heal us today!
His faith made him whole and his sight was restored.
Heal us, Lord Jesus.
5 The lepers were healed and the demons cast out.
Heal us, heal us today!
A bent woman straightened to laugh and to shout.
Heal us, Lord Jesus.
6 The twelve were commissioned and sent out in twos.
Heal us, heal us today!
to make the sick whole and to spread the good news.
Heal us, Lord Jesus.
7 There's still so much sickness and suffering today.
Heal us, heal us today!
We gather together for healing and pray:
Heal us, Lord Jesus.
