At the hem of the garment of Jesus
Was a place that was humble and low
And a Master so Holy yet gentle
All the years of her searching He knows
While she presses through crowds Jesus lingered
No one noticed her there in that place
But there at the hem of His garment
She found mercy and healing and grace
So trust Him today and forever
Take hold of the hem of His robe
For He welcomes the humble and weary
And has promised us grace for the road!

And behold, a woman who had suffered from a discharge of blood for twelve years came up behind him and touched the fringe of his garment, for she said to herself, “If I only touch his garment, I will be made well.” Matthew 9:20-21 ESV
