She only touched the
hem of His garment
As to His side she stole,
Amid the crowd that
gathered around Him,
And straightway she was whole.
Oh, touch the hem of His garment!
And thou, too, shalt be free!
His saving power this very hour
Shall give new life to thee!
She came in fear
and trembling before Him,
She knew her Lord had come;
She felt that from Him
virtue had healed her,
The mighty deed was done.
Oh, touch the hem of His garment!
And thou, too, shalt be free!
His saving power this very hour
Shall give new life to thee!
He turned with “Daughter,
be of good comfort,
Thy faith hath made thee whole!”
And peace that
passeth all understanding
With gladness filled her soul.
Oh, touch the hem of His garment!
And thou, too, shalt be free!
His saving power this very hour
Shall give new life to thee!
