Tune: Richmond
('City of God, how broad and far')
Matthew 8 v.5-13 parts
**************
At Capernaum there came one
To Jesus, centurion
Beseeched Him, said, My servant lies
At home sick, no denies
He paralysed with the palsy
With grievous torments he
Jesus said, I will come, him heal
Have peace in heart, be still
Centurion he did reply
Lord, worthy that you come nigh
I am not, but speak word only
And he shall be healed, see
For I also I am a man
Under authority, can
Say to one, 'Go', and he does go
My commands he does know
And to another I do say
'Come', and he comes that day
And to my servant I do say
'Do this', he does, no delay
Jesus marvelled, said, I have no
Found so great faith, no lot
As this, said to centurion
Go, for it shall be done
Be done, as you have sure believed
Servant healing received
The same hour he was healed, so
Restoration did show
