1. When light divine had touched the hills 
    By slumb’ring Galilee,
    The golden wave then rolled afar 
    Towards the western sea, 
    And when the men had knowledge of 
    The Holy One of God, 
    They journeyed forth through all the land, 
    And spread His fame abroad.
    • Refrain:
      Oh, sing of the loving One! 
      Oh, sing of the healing One! 
      Oh, sing of the mighty One, 
      He’s just the same today!

  2. And when they brought the suff’ring ones, 
    The lowly and the dear, 
    And laid them at the Healer’s feet, 
    From far away and near, 
    They bent before the wondrous One, 
    And earnestly besought, 
    That they might only touch the hem 
    Around His garment wrought.
  3. He heard the prayer, and gave the will 
    And strength to touch the hem, 
    And gave the faith, and virtue flowed 
    From Him and healed them; 
    For every one whose feeblest touch 
    Thus met the Savior’s pow’r, 
    Rose up in perfect health and strength 
    In that accepted hour.
  4. O tender One, O mighty One, 
    Who never sent away 
    The sinner or the sufferer, 
    Thou art the same today;
    The same in love, the same in pow’r, 
    And Thou art waiting still 
    To heal the multitude that come, 
    Yea, whosoever will.
