Here's the lyrics to that song:

Verse 1
There is a balm in Gilead
There is a balm in Gilead
There is a balm in Gilead
There is a balm in Gilead

(choir)
There is a balm in Gilead
There is a balm in Gilead
There is a balm in Gilead
There is a balm in Gilead

Bridge
(Karen)
Oh, oh, oh there is a balm in Gilead
(choir)
There is a balm
There is a balm
There is a balm
There is a balm

Verse 2
Oh, medicine used in the Bible days
To HEAL the sick and take the pain away
Medicine used in the Bible days
To HEAL the sick and take the pain away

(choir)
Medicine used in the Bible days
To HEAL the sick and take the pain away
Medicine used in the Bible days
To HEAL the sick and take the pain away

Bridge (repeat and modulate)

There is a balm
