Acts 11: And much people was added unto the Lord
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Jesus Thy preaching servants bless,
That fill'd with faith and holiness,
Fit instruments for Thy design,
They numbers to Thy church may join,
May by the Spirit's ministry
Unite whole multitudes to Thee.
While sinners in Thy name they call
To' adore the God who died for all,
Let listening souls receive the grace
Which pardon brings to all our race,
Fills the glad heart with love unknown,
And makes the saved and Saviour one.
