200. The Hem of His Garment

1 When Jesus came the lost to deliver,
Amid the throng and press,
Came one who touched the hem of His garment,
The Savior’s seamless dress.

Chorus:
O touch the hem of His garment,
And Christ will set thee free;
Yes, only touch the hem of His garment,
Thy Savior waits for thee.

2 O come in faith to Jesus thy Savior,
His grace will make thee whole;
If thou but touch the hem of His garment
He’ll save thy guilty soul. [Chorus]

3 Come, lost one, sick and weary of sinning,
And trust thy Savior’s pow’r;
For all who touch the hem of His garment
Are healed that self same hour. [Chorus]
