Acts 7:5: He gave him none inheritance in it

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

This earth on which awhile we stay,
We cannot call our own,
So suddenly we pass away
Into that land unknown:
That land unknown, our promised place,
Not yet to us is given;
But heirs through hope, we shall possess
The' inheritance of heaven.
