Luke 12:56: How is it, that ye Jo not discern this time?

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Thy work, O God, they will not see
Revived in our degenerate days,
Or mark the crowds begot by Thee,
The signs of Thy converting grace,
Refusing with their sin to part,
That wilful blindness of the heart.

Sinners, your bosom sins let go.
So shall ye all the truth perceive,
Your time of visitation know,
And savingly on Christ believe.
Increase the publicans forgiveh,
And live on earth the life of heaven.
