Malachi 1:11: The Name be known from east to west

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

The Name be known from east to west,
The truth, and power, and love confess'd
Of Christ, our great exalted Lord!
Jesus, we long Thy day to see,
To hail Thy sovereign Majesty
By all the heathen world adored.

The only God supreme Thou art;
To Thee may every praying heart
Present itself an offering pure.
And let our whole converted race.
Who taste Thy love, and sing Thy praise.
To all eternity endure.
