Matthew 5:45: That ye may be the children of your Father, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

How may we resemble God,
His genuine children prove?
Jesus, Thou the way hast show'd
In universal love:
Let Thy love implanted be,
Pure, impartial, unconfined;
Then mankind in us shall see
The Fiither of mankind.
