THE HEALING MINISTRY OF JESUS, by MABELLE FAY KOONSEN First Line: May the healing touch of jesus Last Line: We are doing unto thee. Subject(s): Healing; Cures | ||||||||
May the healing touch of Jesus Rest upon all those in need Of the Great Physician's presence; Without thought of race or creed. Bless the hospitals and clinics, In their healing ministry, As they bring relief and comfort, Serving all humanity. Give all surgeons and physicians Christlike sympathy and skill, As they tend the sick and suff'ring In fulfillment of Thy will. Grant compassion, strength and patience, As they labor night and day, To all nurses and their helpers; Be to them their Guide and Stay. Let Thy riches benediction, Peace and healing of the mind, Comfort multitudes secluded, Within strong, thick walls confined. Teach us how to show compassion, As Thou didst in Galilee, For whate'er we do for others, We are doing unto Thee. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ONE VOLUME MISSING by RITA DOVE READING HOLDERLIN ON THE PATIO WITH THE AID OF A DICTIONARY by RITA DOVE BANGLA DESH: 2.
