Genesis 3: The Lord God called unto Adam, and said, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)

Religion

Farther, and farther still I run.
Till God with eyes of mercy sees
A wandering soul by sin undone.
And stops my flight among the trees:
Come to the slave of guilty fear.
Now, Lord, arrest Thy fugitive,
And call me forth my doom to hear,
And then my pardon to receive.
