John 15:16: Jesus, dost Thou not ordain

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)

Religion

Jesus, dost Thou not ordain
Us to go, and fruit to bear,
Fruit that always shall remain,
Souls that may Thy praise declare?
Sinners whom for Thee we win
Rescue them and still defend,
From the world, and hell, and sin
Save, and save them to the end.
