Tell me,
Is there a balm
That heals a broken heart?
That comforts and restores a soul?
Tell me.
And please,
Is there a cure
For sickness and disease?
Is there a power strong enough
To heal?
Tell me,
Is there cleansing
From sin’s embedded stain —
A solvent that can purify
All men?
Tell me,
Is there someone
Who knows the truths of life —
Who can be trusted to lead us
Aright?
Oh, yes!
There is a balm —
A cure for soul and flesh —
A purifying solvent for
All sin
And yes,
There is a God
Who came to earth Himself
To pay the price for us and set
Us free.
He bought
Our liberty
With His own precious blood.
He is Himself the way, the truth,
The life.
His name:
Jesus, the Christ.
And everyone who calls
He will receive. Now that you know,
Go tell.
