The Relief.
Jesus. Peace troubled Soul! It's not thy brinish flood, Nor troubling Passions that must do thee good: Come! freely drank, and bathe thee in this Blood.
Jesus. PEace troubled Soul! It's not thy brinish flood, Nor troubling Passions that must do thee good: Come! freely drank, and bathe thee in this Blood.
Sinner. What I? so vile a wretch! it cannot be! Alas! I fear it was not shed for me!
Jesus. Yea even for thee: So far 'twas shed for all, That they may come and welcome, at my Call.
