Acts 3:8: Jesus through faith alone
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Jesus through faith alone
I answer to Thy call;
I stand, and walk, and run,
And leap o'er every wall,
Enter with joy the hallow'd place,
And loudly sing my Saviour's praise.
Both strength and righteousness
In Thee I surely have,
( rladly I Thee confess
Omnipotent to save,
My helpless unbelief to heal,
And pardon on my conscience seal.
(.02. And all the people saw him walking and praising d u i.
Who our weaknesses have known
Should our conversion see,
While with joyful lips we own
The name that sets us free,
By our walk the change sincere,
By holiness of life we prove,
While we humbly persevere
In gratitude and love.
