For our prayer of repentance of faith this past Sunday (May 22), I read the lyrics from a William Cowper hymn, Heal Us, Emmanuel. I want to share it with you for your edification:

1. Heal us, Emmanuel, hear our prayer;

we wait to feel Thy touch;

deep-wounded souls to Thee repair,

and Savior, we are such.

2. Our faith is feeble, we confess

we faintly trust Thy Word;

but wilt Thou pity us the less?

Be that far from Thee, Lord!

3-Remember him who once applied

with trembling for relief;

"Lord, I believe," with tears he cried;

"O help my unbelief!"

4-She, too, who touched Thee in the press

and healing virtue stole,

was answered, "Daughter, go in peace:

thy faith hath made thee whole."

5-Like her, with hopes and fears we come

to touch Thee if we may;

O send us not despairing home;

send none unhealed away.

Grace and Peace,

PJ
