Romans 8:16: Faruer, obedient to Thy will

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 13 (1872)

Religion

Faruer, obedient to Thy will,
Inspired with love Divine,
With meeknéss, peace, and joy, we feel
That we are truly Thine;
Thy Spint by His fruit declares
Us pardon'd and renew'd,
And witness with our spirit bears,
That we are born of God.

The blood which made our conscience pure
Full confidence imparts;
Thy testimony, Lord, is sure
In all Thy children's hearts;
The Spirit of Thy Son within,
Who Abba Father cries,
Redeems the faithful soul from sin,
And wholly sanctifies.
