Matthew 6:4: Father, the good in secret done

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Father, the good in secret done
Will find acceptance at Thy throne;
Thine eye the hidden virtue sees.
Thy voice shall openly confess.
Thyself the recompence shalt be
Of all who humbly act for Thee.
