CHAPTER III. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
1672.
[It is mine own infirmity!]
He that was with thee . . . baptizeth, and all, &c.
—iii. 26.
It is mine own infirmity!
I would have all prefer,
And zealously caress, like me,
My favourite minister:
I grudge alas, at their success,
And secretly repine,
If other instruments of grace
Are follow'd more than mine.

Ah, Lord, enlarge my selfish heart,
And I shall gladly own
The Giver of all good Thou art,
And dost the work alone:
To Thee I shall the glory give,
Thine only choice approve,
And all Thy messengers receive
With pure impartial love.
