Job 42:5: I have heard of Thee by the hearing of the ear, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Of Thee, O Lord, I oft have heard.
Of what Thine arm hath done.
And taught by man, I blindly fear'd,
And served a God unknown:
But when Thy presence in my heart
Doth unbelief remove,
I taste, and see how good Thou art,
Inspired by humble love.
