Psalm 58:10: Who of the rich hath ears to hear

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Who of the rich hath ears to hear.
Divinely warn'd of danger near.
Or fears to find his wealth increase.
The mammon of unrighteousness?
Yet if on wealth ye set your heart.
Ye from the living God depart.
Your souls for nought to Satan sell,
And wisely barter heaven for hell.
