Ezekiel 37:23: While Thou dost our souls restore

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

While Thou dost our souls restore
To their unsinning state,
Give us evil to abhor.
And every idol hate;
Nature's filthiness remove,
Filthiness of self and pride.
Only Thee that we may love.
And pure till death abide.
