Numbers 14:8: The Lord doth in His Son delight

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

The Lord doth in His Son delight,
Doth us for Jesu's sake approve,
Our faith is pleasing in His sight
Productive of obedient love:
And all who thus in Him believe.
Already with the earnest bless'd,
God unto them the land shall give,
The gracious, and the glorious rest.
