The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley

Thou who hast cast me down
By unresisted grace,
To make Thy mercy known
A grovelling sinner raise;
And lo, with strength Divine I stand,
And walk and run at Thy command.

Jesus to me appear
The Son of God and man,
Thy chosen minister
And witness to ordain;
Who cannot testify of Thee,
Unless Thou show Thyself to me.

No vision of my God
But that of faith I need,
Faith in the' atoning blood
For dying sinners shed;
I want to feel the blood applied,
To see the Lamb as crucified.

Soon as Thy wounds I see,
And my Redeemer know,
Thy death reveal'd in me
I will to others show,
And every fresh display of grace
Proclaim to all the ransom'd race.
