If Only I Can Touch Your Cloak

I long to touch Your cloak, dear Jesus

In my belief and in my unbelief

For You are the source of my salvation

I trust in Your love, my heart’s relief

I long to touch Your cloak, dear Jesus

To draw from you the air I breathe

For You are life itself, our saving strength

Your living grace may I receive

I long to touch Your cloak, dear Jesus

In this time of weakness and of fear

You are my strength, my buckler and my shield

Strengthen me, and be with me here

I long to touch Your cloak, dear Jesus

In my confusion in this time of distress

For You are my guide and You are the way

Help me see the path, guide me, be my rest

I long to touch your cloak, dear Jesus

In this time of helplessness and doubt

For You are my strength and surety

There is truly no life without

I long to touch Your cloak, dear Jesus

I hunger for comfort in this time of pain

For in Your hands Creator I live

Your mercy soothing like gentle rain

As I long to touch Your cloak, dear Jesus

I can feel Your mercy flow

Restoring all to wholeness, healing all our pain

Your loving grace on me bestow

I long to touch your cloak, dear Jesus

Please heal my hurting heart

For in Your hands that shaped us...

Comes life and love alive forever

Always with me, never apart
