Tune: Uplifted Eyes
('I lift my eyes to the quiet hills')
Mark 1 v.32-42
********
Many healings did Jesus do
To make many whole, new
Healing the sick, demons outcast
His power shown shall e'er last
Doing His Father's will, He prayed
Obeyed, courage, unafraid
From town to town, salvation shared
In love showing that God cared
A leper came to Him, unclean
For he Jesus sure had seen
Beseeching humbly, if you will
Lord, make me clean, free from ill
Jesus moved then with compassion
Touched him, and said to that one
I will, be you clean,and made well
His love, power, each one tell
O Lord, you reach needy, you do
Help us so to follow you
Your compassion inspiring true
Us all to glorify you
A world of need, tampered by greed
You know what each one does need
Help for our body, spirit, soul
He comes, restores, and makes whole

Well done (again), Orchie! We've got some quiet hills here. They gotta be quiet, being thousands of miles away from the noise and action of the 'real' world (meaning mainland USA).
Thanks Fred.
