Matthew 8:8: Yes, I steadfastly believe

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Yes, I steadfastly believe
Absolute in power Thou art.
Canst by one kind word forgive.
Heal my feebleness of heart:
Strength unknown Thy word supplies.
Clothes the weak with vigour new;
Speak, and out of sin I rise;
Speak, and I can all things do.
