No one who is strong and whole needs a doctor for relief; therefore have no fear, draw nigh, that your want I may supply." 3 But examine first your case, whether you be in the faith; do you long for pard’ning grace? Is your only hope his death? Then, how e’er your soul’s oppressed, Come, you are a worthy guest. 4 They who Jesus’ mercy knows are from wrath and envy freed; love unto our neighbor shows that we are his flock indeed; thus we may in all our ways show forth our Redeemer’s praise.

So shall no part of day or night from sacredness be free, but all my life, in ev'ry step, be fellowship with thee. Scripture: Psalm 34:1 Used With Tune: ELLACOMBE
