Unwearied Earnestness

Charles Wesley • English

Primary Scripture: Job 11:13

Verse 1

Father, I stretch my hands to Thee; No other help I know. If Thou withdraw Thyself from me, Oh! whither shall I go?

Verse 2

What did Thine only Son endure, Before I drew my breath! What pain, what labor to secure My soul from endless death!

Verse 3

Surely Thou canst not let me die; Oh, speak and I shall live; And here I will unwearied lie, Till Thou Thy Spirit give.

Verse 4

Author of faith! to Thee I lift My weary, longing eyes; Oh, let me now receive that gift! My soul without it dies.
