Immortal Love, Forever Full
Author: J. G. Whittier Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 302 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 9:21 Lyrics:
1 Immortal Love, forever full,
forever flowing free,
forever shared, forever whole,
a never ebbing sea.
2 Our outward lips confess the name
all other names above;
love only knoweth whence it came,
and comprehendeth love.
3 We may not climb the heav'nly steeps
to bring the Lord Christ down;
in vain we search the lowest deeps,
for him no depths can drown.
4 But warm, sweet, tender, even yet
a present help is he;
and faith has still its Olivet,
and love its Galilee.
5 The healing of his seamless dress
is by our beds of pain;
we touch him in life's throng and press,
and we are whole again.
6 Alone, O love ineffable,
thy saving name is given;
to turn aside from thee is hell;
to walk with thee is heaven.

I’ve touched the hem of His garment,
And now I, too, am free;
His healing pow’r this very hour
Gives life and health to me.

She knew her Lord had come;
She felt that from Him virtue had healed her,
The mighty deed was done. [Refrain]

Thy faith hath made thee whole,”

With gladness filled her soul.

O Christ, the Healer, We Have Come
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 37 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 9:21-22 Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the healer, we have come
to pray for health, to plead for friends.
How can we fail to be restored
when reached by love that never ends?
2 From every ailment flesh endures
our bodies clamor to be freed;
yet in our hearts we would confess
that wholeness is our deepest need.
3 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?
4 Grant that we all, made one in faith,
in your community may find
the wholeness that, enriching us,
shall reach the whole of humankind.

spent from giving birth,
guard our precious light;
peace is on the earth.

creeping up behind,

seek and you will find!

Come and join the song,
women, children, men.
Jesus makes us free to live again!

question the Messiah;
find your friends and tell:
drink your heart's desire!
Woman at the feast,
let the righteous stare;
come and go in peace;
love him with your hair! [Refrain]

nurtured to be meek,
leave your second place,
listen, think and speak!
Women on the road,
from your sickness freed,
witness and provide,
joining word and deed: [Refrain]

stand when men have fled;
Christ needs loving still,
though your hope is dead.
Women in the dawn,
care and spices bring,
earliest to mourn,
earliest to sing! [Refrain] Used With Tune: NEW DISCIPLES

Your Hands, O Lord, in Days of Old
Author: Edward Hayes Plumptre (1821-1891) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 177 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 9:18-26 Lyrics: 1 Your hands, O Lord, in days of old
were strong to heal and save;
they triumphed over pain and death,
o'er darkness and the grave.
To you they went, the blind, the mute,
the palsied and the lame,
the leper set apart and shunned,
the sick with fevered frame.
2 And then your touch brought life and health,
gave speech and strength and sight;
and youth renewed, with health restored,
claimed you, the Lord of light.
And so, O Lord, be near to bless,
almighty now as then,
in every street, in every home,
in every troubled friend.
3 O be our mighty healer still,
O Lord of life and death;
restore and strengthen, soothe and bless
with your almighty breath.
On hands that work and eyes that see,
your healing wisdom pour,
that whole and sick and weak and strong
may praise you evermore. Topics: Healing; Epiphany (season) Used With Tune: ST. MICHAEL'S

Heal Us, Emmanuel, Hear Our Prayer
Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 9:20-22 Lyrics: 1. Heal us, Emmanuel, hear our prayer;
we wait to feel thy touch;
deep-wounded souls to thee repair,
and Savior, we are such.
2. Our faith is feeble, we confess
we faintly trust thy word;
but wilt thou pity us the less?
Be that far from thee, Lord!
3. Remember him who once applied
with trembling for relief;
"Lord, I believe," with tears he cried;
"O help my unbelief!"
4. She, too, who touched thee in the press
and healing virtue stole,
was answered, "Daughter, go in peace:
thy faith hath made thee whole."
5. Like her, with hopes and fears we come
to touch thee if we may;
O send us not despairing home;
send none unhealed away.

Our lips of childhood frame;
The last low whispers of our dead
Are burdened with His Name.

Whate’er our name or sign,
We own Thy sway, we hear Thy call,
We test our lives by Thine!
Amen.
