He then decended to the plain,
To seek for food and rest,
When all the people of the land
In crowds around Him pressed.
The weary sick and those who felt
The pangs of racking pain,
And others vexed with devils hoped
From Him relief to gain;
And following, sought to touch Him,
As power from Him had flown;
But in compassion He beheld
And healed them, every one.
