| CHAPTER IX. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
2574.
[When I have run my earthly race]
All the widows stood by him weeping, and, &c.
—ix. 39.
When I have run my earthly race,
Lord, I want no greater praise
If Thy true worshippers
Their momentary loss deplore,
And widows desolate and poor
Embalm me with their tears.
Lord, I want no greater praise
If Thy true worshippers
Their momentary loss deplore,
And widows desolate and poor
Embalm me with their tears.
Till then I would my hands employ
Serving them with humblest joy,
And warmest charity;
For taught of God I surely know
That ministering to saints below
I clothe and cherish Thee.
Serving them with humblest joy,
And warmest charity;
