How can we fail to be restored, When reached by love that never ends? 2 From ev'ery ailment flesh endures Our bodies clamor to be freed; Yet in our hearts we would confess That wholeness is our deepest need. 3 How strong, O Lord, are our desires, How weak our knowledge of ourselves! Release in us those healing truths Unconscious pride resists or shelves. 4 In conflicts that destroy our health We recognize the world's disease; Our common life declares our ills: Is there no cure, O Christ, for these? 5 Grant that we all, made one in faith, In your community may find The wholeness that, enriching us, Shall reach the whole of humankind.

There is plentiful redemption In the blood that has been shed; There is joy for all the members In the sorrows of the Head. 2 For the love of God is broader Than the measures of the mind, And the heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind. If our love were but more simple We should take him at his word, And our lives would be thanksgiving For the goodness of our Lord. 3 Troubled souls, why will you scatter Like a crowd of frightened sheep? Foolish hearts, why will you wander From a love so true and deep? There is welcome for the sinner And more graces for the good; There is mercy with the Savior, There is healing in his blood.
