He's more than just a doctor
He's a friend, a confidant,
To whom I can confide my deepest fears.
He will not laugh or put me down,
He'll understand and help.
Whistling a cheerful little tune
He ushers me into his office.
Anxiety and fear are dissipated and I'm sure
That whatever ailment I may have
He'll treat successfully.
He always has a little joke
Or interesting anecdote
To put me at my ease and cheer me up.
He is sincere, concerned and caring, understanding.
He lifts my spirits while he treats my body,
And I leave his office reassured
That all will soon be well.
He has a deep abiding faith in God
And I gladly put my life into his hands;
Knowing he is guided through his faith
By the great Physician, Jesus,
Lord and Saviour of us all.
