The Good Physician 176b

Tune: Eld. Edmund Dumas
Alto: Mrs. Anna L. (Cooper) Blackshear, 1902
Lyrics: John Newton, 1779
Meter: 7s,6s (7,6,7,6)
How lost was my condition,
Till Jesus made me whole;
There is but one Physician
Can cure a sin-sick soul.

Chorus:

Poor sinners, come to Jesus,
O come without delay,
For Jesus is inviting,
O come, O come today.

Next door to death He found me,
And snatch'd me from the grave;
To tell all around me
His wondrous pow'r to save.

(Chorus)
