John 19:35: He that saw it bare record, and his record, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

I do believe the record true,
Thou earnest by blood and water too,
By blood to' atone, by water clean
To wash out all ray inbred sin.
To sprinkle and renew my heart,
To make me Saviour as Thou art,
And then take home Thy spotless bride,
And place me glorious at Thy side.
