Matthew 15: How many leaves have ye? And they said, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

God on man the grace bestows
His own indigence to see:
Then the humbled sinner knows,
Owns his heart-felt poverty:
Then he doth himself abase.
Nothing in his own esteem,
Prizes the Redeemer's grace,
Seeks his whole of good in Him.
