Wednesday, June 22, 2005 AD Well-Named Ladies First, I am highly eager to know how the closing on Valerie J.'s house went yesterday. Hope she posts soon!
Second, Valerie (BBG) is such a sweetie! She has -- via a dial-up connection, no less! -- let me e-mail her the song file I mentioned the other day, and then uploaded it to her site for hosting. Here's the MP3 file, and here are the lyrics:
Great Physician (February 1997)
There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole There is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin-sick soul
O Great Physician, I am wounded, I am broken, I am needy for a token of Your love for me. O Great Physician, with a word so sweetly spoken, You have my soul awoken from its sin-sick sleep.
When I --- see the sickness of my sin, I --- turn to You for grace and then I --- find that I've already been forgiven. So I --- lift my voice to You and sing Thanks --- giving for the love You bring You --- come with mercy in Your wings To heal my sin-sick soul
O Great Physician, when I fall before You, kneeling Hoping that my depth of feeling's Equal to my shame O Great Physician, there's no need for all my dealing All I need to get Your healing Is to speak Your name
When I --- see the sickness of my sin, I --- turn to You for grace and then I --- find that I've already been forgiven. So I --- lift my voice to You and sing Thanks --- giving for the love You bring You --- come with mercy in Your wings To heal my sin-sick soul
O Great Physician, when I look at my surroundings At the sickness that's abounding In my fallen race O Great Physician, I can hear Your voice resounding With a love that is astounding: "Come receive My grace!"
When You --- see the sickness of our sin, You --- come to us with grace and then We --- find find how freely we have been forgiven. With our --- voices raised to You we sing Thanks --- giving for the love You bring You've --- come with mercy in Your wings To heal our sin-sick souls
There is a balm --- in Gilead....
Thanks again, Tocaya! Posted by Valerie (Kyriosity) at 6/22/2005 07:03:00 AM
