Jeremiah 17:14: Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
If Thou Thy healing power exert.
Before my soul and body part,
My soul to health restored
Shall happy in Thy favour live.
And perfected in love retrieve
The image of its Lord.
Physician of the fallen race,
Apply the medicine of Thy grace,
And while my heart believes Thy word
Raised from the death of sin I live.
Complete salvation I receive.
To perfect health, and love, and holiness restored.
