Jeremiah 30:8: In that day I will break his yoke, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)

Religion

Hasten, Lord, the day of rest
From this indwelling sin.
Vindicate Thy church oppress'd,
And still enslaved within;
Burst our bonds, and let us go
From every thought of evil freed,
Pure in heart, and saints below,
And like our sinless Head.
