The Great physician now is near

Meter: 8.7.8.7.& Ref

Scripture: Matt. 28:20

1

The Great physician now is near,

The sympathizing Jesus;

He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,

Oh, hear the voice of Jesus!

CHORUS

Sweetest note in seraph song,

Sweetest name on mortal tongue,

Sweetest carol ever sung:

Jesus! blessed Jesus!

2

Your many sins are all forgiven,

Oh, hear the voice of Jesus!

Go on your way in peace to heaven,

And wear a crown with Jesus.

3

All glory to the risen Lamb!

I now believe it Jesus;

I love the blessed Saviour’s name,

I love the name of Jesus.

4

His name dispels my guilt and fear,

No other name but Jesus;

Oh, how my soul delights to hear

The precious name of Jesus.

5

Come, brethren, help me sing His praise,

Oh, praise the name of Jesus!

Come, sisters, all your voices raise,

Oh, bless the name of Jesus!

6

The children too, both great and small,

Who love the name of Jesus,

May now accept the gracious call

To work and live for Jesus.

7

And when to the bright world above

We raise to see our Jesus,

We’ll sing around the throne of love

His name, the name of Jesus.
