Isaiah 11:4: Jesus, let the gospel-word

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Jesus, let the gospel-word
Out of Thy mouth proceed,
Smite us with Thy two-edged sword,
And strike the wicked dead,
Let Thy glorious breath consume
The man of sin, the carnal mind,
Slay the Antichrist oi Home
In me, and all mankind.
