Hymns on the Trinity, 36

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Hymns on the Trinity (1767) · Osborn ed., vol. 7 (1870)

Religion

The mighty deeds in Jesus' name-
By His eternal Father done,
Jesus Himself perform'd the same,
By power immediately His own;
And all His works arc done by Him
In unity with Clod supreme.

The virtue to His servants given
From Him its only Fountain tlow'd:
They by the power of Christ in heaven
On earth stupendous wonders show'd,
But told who wrought the miracles,
"Jesus, the Christ, thy body heals."

Jesus, the mightier works of grace
Which still we do in Thy great name,
For these we render Thee the praise,
Their heavenly Author's power proclaim,
And cry to each recover'd soul,
"'Tis Christ Himself that makes thee whole."
