James 2:14: Can that faith save him?, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

In vain thou say'st in words alone
Unproved by works, that "faith I have!"
The faith by works which is not shown,
From sin from hell can never save,
Unprofitable all and void,
The faith of man, and not of God.
