Christ Can Feel, Christ Can Heal
From a German Christmas carol by Paul Gerhardt comes this final stanza filled with hope:
Ye who strive with fierce temptation,
Sorrow-stung, conscience-wrung,
Here is consolation:
For the woes which men inherit
Christ can feel, Christ will heal
Every wounded spirit.
