Graces: Away with all our trouble

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Away with all our trouble
And caring for the morrow.
The God of love
Shall still remove
Our every want and sorrow.

Still, Lord, with joy we bless Thee
Of all good gifts the Giver,
For Christ our Lord
Hath spoke the word
Which seals Thee ours for ever.
