John 21: Tins comfort is for you

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Tins comfort is for you,
Ye gospel fishermen,
Who patiently your work pursue
But seem to work in vain:
Your net persist to cast,
As Jesus' ministers,
And know, one happy draught at last
Will pay your toil of years.
