Matthew 21:21: Ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Vho ever of a mountain heard
By faith removed into the sea?
The literal miracle absurd:
The truth my Lord hath wrought in me:
Saviour, the sin I served and loved.
Thou hast commanded to depart,
Lar from my soul the guilt removed,
And cast the power out of my heart.
