Hebrews 10:14: His mournful days of flesh are o'er

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

His mournful days of flesh are o'er,
Accomplish'd is His sacrifice,
Who suffer'd once, He dies no more,
Nor adds to that stupendous price
Which purchased for the faithful race
Pardon, and perfect holiness.

The souls whom separated for His
Out of an evil world He takes,
He renders meet for endless bliss,
Partakers of His nature makes,
And crowns with all the joys above
Their patient faith, and humble love.
