The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley

All things are possible to him
That can in Jesu's name believe:
Lord, I no more Thy truth blaspheme,
Thy truth I lovingly receive;
I can, I do believe in Thee,
All things are possible to me.

The most impossible of all,
Is, that I e'er from sin should cease;
Yet shall it be: I know, it shall:
Jesus, look to Thy faithfulness!
If nothing is too hard for Thee,
All things are possible to me.

I without sin on earth shall live,
Even I, the chief of sinners I:
Thy glory, Lord, to Thee I give,
O God of truth, Thou canst not lie;
What Thou hast said shall surely be:
All things are possible to me.

Though earth and hell the word gainsay,
The word of God can never fail:
The Lamb shall take my sins away,
'Tis certain, though impossible;
The thing impossible shall be:
All things are possible to me.

301

When Thou the work of faith hast wrought,
I here shall in Thine image shine,
Nor sin in deed, or word, or thought;
Let men exclaim, and fiends repine,
They cannot break the firm decree:
All things are possible to me.

The' unchangeable decree is past,
The sure predestinating word,
That I, who on my Lord am cast,
I shall be like my sinless Lord:
'Twas fix'd from all eternity:
All things are possible to me.

Thy mouth, O Lord, hath spoke, hath sworn,
That I shall serve Thee without fear,
Shall find the pearl which others spurn,
Holy, and pure, and perfect here,
The servant as his Lord shall be:
All things are possible to me.

All things are possible to God,
To Christ the power of God in man,
To me, when I am all renew'd,
When I in Christ am born again,
And witness, from all sin set free,
All things are possible to me.
