Numbers 14:19: Pardon, I beseech Thee, the iniquity, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Since first we did from Egypt fly.
Hast Thou not shown Thy patient grace,
A thousand times our sin pass'd by.
And pardon'd a rebellious race?
Wherefore by all Thy mercies past
We pray Thee yet again forgive.
And let our souls, subdued at last.
To praise Thy love for ever live.
