John 5:9: Ami on the same day was the sabbath

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Whene'er Thou dost a sinner heal
Languid, and weary, and oppress'd,
His pardon he exults to feel.
Enters into the sacred rest.
And antedates the joy above.
The sabbath of eternal love.
