Luke 5:26: They were all amazed, and they glorified God

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Let all the God of mercy praise.
Whose mercy doth to all extend;
His work reviving in our days,
His grace to sinners we commend.
While in ourselves and them we prove
The wonders wrought by Jesus' love.

Daily we see the arm reveal'd,
The love of our almighty Lord,
And crowds of palsied souls are heal'd,
Heal'd by a kind forgiving word,
They rise, they walk in truth and grace,
They follow after holiness.

Thee, Jesus, Thee we glorify,
With wonder at Thy feet adore;
ith fear extol the Lord most high.
Wisdom, and Truth, and Love, and Power,
By every ransom'd soul confess'd
God over all for ever bless'd.
