The Blessed Wounds
[Verse 1]
The blessed wounds of our Saviour
Be open and enjoy to heal us, to heal us
The sweet gracious hands of our Mother
Be ready and diligently about us
[Verse 2]
For He in all this working useth the office of a kind nurse that hath nought else to do
But to give heed about the salvation of her child
[Verse 3]
It is His office to save us
It is His worship to do for us
And it is His will that we know it
For He willeth that we love Him sweetly
And trust in Him meekly and mightily
And this shewed He in these gracious words: "I keep thee full surely"
[Outro]
Surely

And trust in Him meekly and mightily
And this shewed He in these gracious words: "I keep thee full surely"
