Hymns on the Lord's Supper, 19

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Hymns on the Lord's Supper (1745) · Osborn ed., vol. 3 (1869)

Religion

Forgive, the Saviour cries,
They know not what they do;
Forgive, my heart replies,
And all my soul renew;
I claim the kingdom in Thy right,
Who now Thy sufferings share,
And mount with Thee to Sion's height,
And see Thy glory there.
