Romans 12:12: Pass we thus our days of mourning

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Pass we thus our days of mourning
While we for His coming stay,
Languish for our Lord's returning
Let us still believe and pray;
More and more in grace increasing,
Swifter toward our Centre move,
Wrestle on in prayer unceasing,
Only live to pray and love.
