Wholesome Healing

Tune: Kingsfold

('I heard the voice of Jesus say')

Mark 5 v.25-34 parts

********

As Jesus went, many people

Followed and thronged Him all

A woman with issue of blood

Got to Him as she could

She had her trouble for twelve years

No healing did appear

Though many physicians she saw

Spent all but changed no more

 

For she did touch Jesus' garment

And power from Him went

For she did say, If I touch may

Hem of His cloak this day

I shall be whole, and straight away

Answered as she did pray

Was her prayer, for fount of blood ceased

Healing in her released

 

Jesus said, Who has touched my clothes?

Power has gone I know

From me, and the woman fearing

Came and told of each thing

Jesus He did her comfort there

Said, Daughter, have no care

Your faith has made you whole, now go

In peace be whole, be so

  • Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 8.6.8.6. 8.6.8.6. format. Prayers for healing and medicine can go together, I believe. Certain people healed after many years - here, 12 years - with just a 'touch'.
