Genesis 15:5: So shall thy seed be

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

His spiritual, believing seed
In glory shall excel,
Numbers of Israelites indeed.
Which only God can tell,
Distinguish'd by their Saviour's love
With dignity Divine,
And brighter than the stars above
They shall for ever shine.
