There is a Balm in Gilead
Negro Spiritual
There is a balm in Gilead
to make the wounded whole.
There is a balm in Gilead
to save a sin-sick soul.
If you cannot preach like Peter,
If you cannot pray like Paul,
You can tell the love of Jesus,
You can say, He died
for us all.
There is a balm in Gilead
to make the wounded whole.
Yes, there is a balm
in Gilead
to save a sin-sick soul.
Sometimes
I do feel discouraged,
I feel I cannot go on
Oh, but then the Holy Spirit
revives my soul,
revives my soul,
again.
There is a balm in Gilead
to make the wounded whole.
There is a balm in Gilead
to heal a sin-sick soul.
Do not feel discouraged,
for Jesus is your friend.
If you ask Him for any
knowledge,
He will not fail to lend.
There is a balm in Gilead
to make the wounded whole.
There is a balm in Gilead
to heal our sin-sick souls.
