The Glorious Goodness of the Triune Jehovah

Charles Wesley • English

Primary Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:17

Verse 1

Come, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, Whom one all-perfect God we own, Restorer of Thine image lost, Thy various offices make known; Display, our fallen souls to raise, Thy whole economy of grace.

Verse 2

Jehovah in Three Persons, come, And draw, and sprinkle us, and seal Poor, guilty, dying worms, in whom Thou dost eternal life reveal; The knowledge of Thyself bestow, And all Thy glorious goodness show.

Verse 3

Soon as our pardoned hearts believe That Thou art pure, essential love, The proof we in ourselves receive Of the three witnesses above; Sure, as the saints around Thy throne, That Father, Word, and Spirit, are One.

Verse 4

O that we now, in love renewed, Might blameless in Thy sight appear: Wake we in Thy similitude, Stamped with the Triune character; Flesh, spirit, soul, to Thee resign, And live and die entirely Thine!
