There is a balm in Gilead

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

1 Sometimes I feel discouraged
And think my work’s in vain
But then the Holy Spirit
Revives my soul again

2 Don’t ever be discouraged
For Jesus is your friend
And if you lack for knowledge
He’ll ne’er refuse to lend

3 If you cannot preach like Peter
If you cannot pray like Paul
You can tell the love of Jesus
And say : "He died for all"
