1 Samuel 2:2: There is Jione holy as the Lord

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Holy as Thee, O Lord, is none;
Thy holiness is all Thine own,
A drop of that unbounded sea
Is ours, a drop derived from Thee:
And Avhen Thy purity we share,
Thine only glory we declare.
And humbled into nothing, own
Holy and pure is God alone.
