Matthew 9:22: yesus turned Him about, and when He saw, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Turn then, Thou good Physician turn,
Thou Source of unexhausted love,
Sole Comforter of souls forlorn.
Who only canst my plague remove,
O cast a pitying look on me
Who dare not lift mine eyes to Thee.
Yet will I in my God confide.
Who mildly comes to meet my soul:
I wait to feel Thy blood applied;
Thy blood applied shall make me whole;
And lo! I trust Thy gracious power
To touch, to heal me — in this hour.
