Acts 17:4: Grace not the rich prefer

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Grace not the rich prefer,
Doth not the rich refuse;
Saved alike by Christ they are
If all for Him they use:
If for Him they all forsake,
Jesus declares their pardon sure,
Raises, and vouchsafes to make
Them equal to the poor.
