Deuteronomy 10:16: If Thou command it, Lord, we may

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

If Thou command it, Lord, we may
With our transgressions part:
We do cut off, and cast away
The foreskin of our heart;
Our stiff-neck'd souls we bow to Thee,
And trusting in Thy power,
We need no more rebeUious be,
We will rebel no more.
