There Is A Balm In Gilead
To Make The Wounded Whole,
There Is A Balm In Gilead
To Heal The Sin-Sick Soul.

Sometimes I Feel Discouraged
And Think My Work’s In Vain,
But Then The Holy Spirit
Revives My Soul Again.

If You Cannot Preach Like Peter,
If You Cannot Pray Like Paul,
You Can Tell The Love Of Jesus
And Say, “He Died For All.”
