Psalm: In the evening, and morning, and at noon

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Not as a formal task to Thee
My tale of words I pay,
But feeling my own poverty
I every hour would pray;
Would always pray, and never faint,
Till, wholly sanctified,
Thou take me up, a sinless saint.
And seat me by Thy side.
