The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
1050.
[Had not the Lord reserved a seed]
Except the Lord of hosts had left unto us, &c.
—i. 9.
Had not the Lord reserved a seed,
A remnant saved by sovereign grace,
His judgments shower'd upon our head,
Had swallow'd up the British race,
Sunk us beneath the ambient wave,
And buried in a fiery grave.
