2 Chronicles 19:3: Ah, how can I my heart prepare

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Ah, how can I my heart prepare
To seek my Lord aright?
Jesus, the Way, Thyself declare
In pure unerring light.
Giver of true repentance, break
This stubborn heart of stone,
Then shall I leave my sins, and seek,
And find Thee all my own.
