JESUS THE GREAT PHYSICIAN
by Linda Ann Henry
Dearest Jesus, You are the great physician
Your whole life You spent so much time
Curing the sick who needed You
Your name written in gold, ever kind
Yet some people never thanked you
May we ask Your forgiveness
And Your mercy divine
Jesus is the great physician
So many years ago
He cured the blind who could not see
He healed the lame and set them free
Illness of the mind would end
Even dead ones rose to life
Through Him people could believe again
My Jesus, I love You
with my whole heart and soul
I will not demand You make me whole
For I trust You, the great physician of mankind
That some must wait, until Your time,
You can cure one and all
But I believe there is a reason
Jesus may not answer my call
For we may have a special calling
A gift from the Master, in pain
And only when He feels our work is done
Will we be carried by angels away
Up into His heaven, near the setting sun
Where my Lord Jesus holds us close to Him
Then the Great Physician will cure all
For I believe He can do anything
Matthew 14:14 (KJV)
And Jesus went forth,
and saw a great multitude,
and was moved with compassion
toward them, and he healed their sick.
