O God of Life, Your Healing Touch
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #57a (2009) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Wholeness and Healing, Service of Lyrics: O God of life, your healing touch
Brings wholeness and salvation!
In you, this world you love so much
Becomes a new creation.
Through Jesus Christ you blessed the poor,
Unleashed your gifts of healing.
You gave new sight, new strength, new life—
To all, your love revealing.
O Christ, the loving healer still,
You gather us for mission
To serve your people who are ill,
Whatever their condition.
You send us to the suffering
With medicine and caring;
Now make our lives an offering
To those who are despairing.
Lord, by your Spirit, may we hear
The truth of others’ stories.
May we respect their doubts and fears,
Their hopes and dreams, their worries.
And when their ways are not our own,
Lord, give us understanding:
Our faith cannot be fully grown
When we are too unbending.
How long, Lord, shall we serve the poor—
A week, a month, a season?
We ask the question, hoping for
A limit to our mission.
But open wide our hearts anew
And show us, as we’re giving,
Your life-long call to serving you
In daily, generous living. Scripture: Mark 1:21-28 Languages: English Tune Title: KETY

O God of Life, Your Healing Touch
O Christ, the Healer, we have come
Author: Fred Pratt Green (1903-2000) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #518 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Wholeness and Healing 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 clamour 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 diagnose 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. Scripture: Mark 1:21-34 Languages: English Tune Title: BOW BRICKHILL
O Christ, the Healer, we have come

When to our world the Saviour came
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #525 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Wholeness and Healing Lyrics: 1 When to our world the Saviour came
the sick and helpless heard his name,
and in their weakness longed to see
the healing Christ of Galilee.
2 That good physician! Night and day
the people thronged about his way;
and wonder ran from soul to soul,
'The touch of Christ has made us whole!'
3 His praises then were heard and sung
by opened ears and loosened tongue,
while lightened eyes could see and know
the healing Christ of long ago.
4 Of long ago: yet living still,
who died for us on Calvary's hill;
who triumphed over cross and grave,
his healing hands stretched forth to save.
5 His sovereign purpose still remains
who rose in power, and lives and reigns;
till every tongue confess his praise,
the healing Christ of all our days. Scripture: Mark 1:21-34 Languages: English Tune Title: FOSSEBRIDGE

Immortal Love for ever full
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #675 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Wholeness and Healing Lyrics: 1 Immortal Love for ever full,
for ever flowing free,
for ever shared, for ever 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 heavenly 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 Through him the first fond prayers are said
our lips of childhood frame;
the last low whispers of our dead
are burdened with his name.
7 Alone, O Love ineffable,
thy saving name is given;
to turn aside from thee is hell,
to walk with thee is heaven. Scripture: Deuteronomy 30:11-14 Languages: English Tune Title: BISHOPTHORPE
Immortal Love for ever full
