Matthew 8:16: How great the goodness of our Lord
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
How great the goodness of our Lord,
Not to reject one sin-sick soul!
How great the virtue of His word
Pronouncing every patient whole!
Away this infidel despair!
From sin's inveterate malady
The' omnipotent Physician's care
Shall by His grace recover me.
