1 Peter 4:11: Ler all who speak in Jesu's name

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Ler all who speak in Jesu's name,
To His submit their every word,
Implicit faith in them disclaim,
And send the hearers to their Lord;
Who doth His Father's will reveal,
The only Guide infallible.

Jesus, to me Thy mind impart,
Be Thou Thine own Interpreter,
Explain the Scripture to my heart,
That when the church Thy servant hear,
Taught by the oracles Divine,
They all may own, the word is Thine.
