Numbers 14:17: On us, almighty Lord, bestow

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

On us, almighty Lord, bestow
The blessing which we humbly crave,
The greatness of Thy mercy show,
And magnify Thy power to save;
Take all Thy people's sin away,
Its being with its guilt remove.
And thus in our behalf display
Thy whole omnipotence of love.
