Deuteronomy 33:27: Lord, I Thy truth proclaim

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Lord, I Thy truth proclaim.
And all-sufficient grace,
Kept by the virtue of Thy name
To perfect holiness:
Till Thou Thyself reveal,
I on the promise feed,
Thou wilt the enemy expel,
And slay the cursed seed:

The enemy within
He shall not long annoy.
Thou surely wilt extirpate sin.
And utterly destroy.
Thou wilt my soul defend.
Fulfil Thine own design,
My unbelief and troubles end.
And make me all Divine.
