Isaiah 11:4: Righteous Judge, who read'st the heart

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Righteous Judge, who read'st the heart,
And know'st what is in man,
Rise, to take Thy people's part.
The helpless' cause maintain:
Patron of the poor appear,
Thy meek, afflicted subjects own.
Manifest Thy kingdom here.
And call us to Thy throne.
