Graces: Father, through Thy Son receive

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Graces (1746) · Osborn ed., vol. 3 (1869)

Religion

Father, through Thy Son receive
Our grateful sacrifice,
All the wants of all that live
Thine open hand supplies,
Fills the world with plenteous food;

For the riches of Thy grace,
Take, Thou universal Good,
The' universal praise.
