The Great Physician’s Hand
      (James A. Metcalf)

As he lay beside the pool
      There in Bethesda
He wondered how
      That he would make it in
Then Jesus came
      Unto him in the courtyard
And the words He spoke
      Made him whole again

Chorus:
It wasn’t modern day medicine
      That healed him
Or the waters in Bethesda’s pool
It wasn’t educated doctors
      That made him whole again
It was just the touch
      Of the Great Physician’s hand

As they stood beside his bedside
      They were crying
The doctor said he wouldn’t make it
      Through the night
Then momma fell down on her knees
      And called on Jesus
She kne what He still healed
Now everything’s alright
