Luke 2:49: Jesus' faithful minister

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Jesus' faithful minister,
Who works the works of God,
Will not reason, or confer
With feeble flesh and blood;
Loosed from all on earth he sees,
He still presents his sacrifice,
Only lives to serve and please
A Father in the skies.
