Luke 12:29: Neither be ye of doubtful mind

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Labour is by God enjoin'd,
God forbids our needless care,
Toil of the mistrustful mind,
Hung like meteors in the air,
Held in infidel suspense
Doubting His good providence.

But whoe'er Thy word receive.
We a firm support have found,
Free and undistracted live,
Built on an eternal ground.
Truth Divine which cannot move.
Boundless power, and endless love,
