Luke 4:36: Jesus prove Thy word on me

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Jesus prove Thy word on me:
Sin in me doth.still reside,
Anger and impurity,
Self, and unbelief, and pride:
Thy Divine perfections show.
Thy authority exert.
Cast him out this inbred foe,
Come Thyself and fill my heart.
