Galatians 5:17: Yes; but with the fleshly lust

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Yes; but with the fleshly lust
I never need comply,
Who on my Redeemer trust,
And on His word rely;
Tempted, yet by Him withheld,
To sin I give no longer place;
Flesh doth to His Spirit yield,
And nature bows to grace.
