Christ the healer

In the gospels we read of many cases of Jesus healing the sick. This poster in the Chapel helps us to focus on Christ the healer. We thank God for our School Doctor - Dr Kaplan, and for our School Nurse - Mrs Wilson. We often pray in the Chapel for all the sick children in Great Ormond Street Hospital, London.

I love these words by Charles Wesley:

Hear him, ye deaf; his praise, ye dumb,
your loosened tongues employ;
ye blind, behold your Saviour come;
and leap, ye lame, for joy!

Yes:

O for a thousand tongues to sing
my dear Redeemer's praise!

Yes Peter Wesley at his best and absolutely Biblical! Lyngham is fun to sing if there are lots of men but we often do it to "Richmond" which is also a fine tune!
