1 Kings 17:16: That thy stock may never cease

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

Religion

That thy stock may never cease,
That thy little may increase.
Gladly of that little gi e,
Poor thyself, the poor relieve;
The great Prophet entertain,
Sure eternally to gain
All the infinite reward,
All the glory of Thy Lord.
