Deuteronomy 23: Strengthen'd by Thy command

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Strengthen'd by Thy command
Against my wickedness.
Henceforth I every sin withstand
Through Thy sufficient grace:
I lay the sin aside
Which caused my frequent fall,
And wait to feel the blood applied
That cleanses me from all.
