Mark 8:7: Jesus multiplies to give

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)

Religion

Jesus multiplies to give,
But man to' engross and hoard:
Shall we not with thanks receive
The bounty of our Lord?
Riches, Lord, Thou dost not bless,
But things by which the poor are fed:
Happy who therewith possess
The everlasting Bread!
