Matthew 10:8: Freely ye Jiave received, freely give

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Our life, and grace, and ministry
We freely did receive,
And freely to Thy church and Thee
Our gifts and life we give:
Bishop of souls, we wait the day
Which shall reward our toil;
Appear, Thy servants to o'erpay
With one eternal smile.
