Lyrics

Refrain

There is a balm in Gi­le­ad
To make the wound­ed whole;
There is a balm in Gi­le­ad
To heal the sin sick soul.

Some times I feel dis­cour­aged,
And think my work’s in vain,
But then the Ho­ly Spi­rit
Revives my soul again.

Refrain

If you can’t preach like Pe­ter,
If you can’t pray like Paul,
Just tell the love of Je­sus,
And say He died for all.
