Acts 8:2: He asks an undivided heart

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

He asks an undivided heart;
And is the whole too much for Him
Who freely did Himself impart
A world of sinners to redeem?
God hath His all on man bestow'd,
Shall man refuse his all to God?

Jesus the Lord I would confess,
My God with full assurance own
Who bought the universal peace,
And cleave by faith to Him alone,
The faith He never can reprove,
The faith that works by perfect love.
