Mark 4:19: The lusts of other tilings entering in, choke, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Saviour I in Thee confide:
How shall I Thy grace retain?
Aught if I desire beside.
All my good desires are vain:
Lest the world ensnare my heart.
Banish every thought of Thee,
Entering now, no more depart,
Christ be all in all to me.
