The Author of Every Good Gift

Charles Wesley • English

Primary Scripture: Isaiah 26:12

Verse 1

Father, to Thee my soul I lift; My soul to Thee depends, Convinced that every perfect gift From Thee alone descends.

Verse 2

Mercy and grace are Thine alone, And power and wisdom too; Without the Spirit of Thy Son We nothing good can do.

Verse 3

Thou all our works in us hast wrought, Our good is all divine; The praise of every virtuous thought Or righteous work is Thine.

Verse 4

From Thee, through Jesus, we receive The power on Thee to call, In whom we are, and move and live: Our God is all in all.
