Lyrics

1. A little child feels longing for its mother; a bridegroom longs to greet his loving bride. The sick and lonely yearn for loving comfort; the feeble lamb will seek its shepherd's side.
2. Where then will I find healing for my spirit? Who can restore my sad and burdened soul? When I have drifted from God's congregation, how can my soul find Him who makes me whole?
3. O Son of God, my Helper, my Redeemer, anew in You I place my faith and trust. You are the Healer of my soul, the Saviour, to whom my will and life I would adjust.
