Job 10:2: I will say Jinto God, Do not condemn me

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Cut me not off, almighty Uord,
But use Thy rod, and not Thy sword;
The cross no longer I decline.
But save me from the curse Divine;
Let sorrow break this wretched heart,
Let pain my soul and body part.
But suffer not my soul to be
For ever separated from Thee.
