Mark 4:20: With humble joy the word who hear

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

With humble joy the word who hear
And faithfully retain.
And practise it with zeal sincere,
The full reward they gain;
In faith they more and more increase.
In hope and patient love.
Have here their fruit to holiness.
And endless life above.
