Matthew 4:23-24

• [Mat 4:23] Galilee, Bright Galilee

  Galilee, bright Galilee, Hallowed thoughts we turn to thee! Woven through thy history, Gleams the charming mystery Of the life of One Who came, Bearing grief, reproach and shame, Savior of the world to be; “God with us” by Galilee. Once along that rugged shore He, who all our sorrows bore, Journeyed oft with weary feet, Through the storm or burning heat; Healing all who came in faith, Calling back to life from death; King of kings from heaven was He, Though so poor by Galilee! Wild the night on Galilee; Loudly roared the angry sea, When upon the tossing wave Jesus walked, His own to save: Calmed the tumult by His will, Only saying, “Peace, be still!” Ruler of the storm was He, On the raging Galilee! Still in loving tenderness Doth the Master wait to bless; Still His touch upon the soul Bringeth balm and maketh whole; Still He comforts mourning hearts, Life, and joy, and peace imparts; Still the Friend of all is He, As of old by Galilee!

• [Mat 4:24] Thou To Whom The Sick And Dying

  Thou to Whom the sick and dying Ever came, nor came in vain, Still with healing word replying, To the wearied cry of pain, Hear us, Jesu, as we meet Suppliants at Thy mercy seat. Still the weary, sick, and dying Need a brother’s, sister’s care, On Thy higher help relying May we now their burdens share, Bringing all our offerings meet Suppliants at Thy mercy seat. May each child of Thine be willing Willing both in hand and heart, All the law of love fulfilling, Ever comfort to impart; Ever bringing offerings meet, Suppliant to Thy mercy seat. So may sickness, sin, and sadness To Thy healing virtue yield, Till the sick and sad, in gladness, Rescued, ransomed, cleansèd, healed, One in Thee together meet, Pardoned at Thy judgment seat.
