CHAPTER XVI. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
2162.
[A soul by man forsaken]
Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.
—xvi. 32.
A soul by man forsaken
May hang upon Thy cross,
For Thou hast undertaken
The friendless sinner's cause;
His comfort in affliction
That Thou regard'st Thine own,
And through Thy dereliction
He dwells with God alone.
May hang upon Thy cross,
For Thou hast undertaken
The friendless sinner's cause;
His comfort in affliction
That Thou regard'st Thine own,
And through Thy dereliction
He dwells with God alone.
My Lord by all deserted
Remembers the forlorn,
Binds up the broken-hearted,
And blesses those that mourn:
And if in my temptation
Thou dost my soul attend,
I'll bear the tribulation
Which but with life shall end.

Which but with life shall end.
