Isaiah 24:14, 15: Sure the word which God doth say

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Sure the word which God doth say.
Verified in us to-day;
Yes, we now lift up our voice,
Now the islanders rejoice.

Jesu's majesty we sing,
Jesus is our glorious King,
Jesu's love our song inspires;
Praise Him, praise Him in the fires!

Him we in the furnace see
Guardian of the faithful three,
Compass'd round with lambent llame.
Shout we our Deliverer's name.

Vhom we here by faith behold,
Christ shall bring us forth as gold,
Vessels of His perfect grace,
Monuments of His endless praise.
