Refrain:
There is a balm in Gilead
to make the wounded whole,
there is a balm in Gilead
to heal the sin-sick soul.
Sometimes I feel discouraged
and think my work's in vain,
but then the Holy Spirit
revives my soul again. Refrain
2 Don't ever feel discouraged,
For Jesus is your friend,
And if you look for knowledge
He'll ne'er refuse to lend. Refrain
3 If you can't preach like Peter,
if you can't pray like Paul,
just tell the love of Jesus,
and say he died for all. Refrain
