History & Politics

For Our Unconverted Relations

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Hymns of Intercession for All Mankind (1758) · Osborn ed., vol. 6 (1870)

History & Politics

By wisdom meek, and patient pain.
By labour of unwearied love.

Give us our household foes to gain;
Or if we first from earth remove,
Yet grant our heart's extreme desire,
And save them, save them as by fire!
