02/11/2002 Entry: "A burst of Wesley"
I feel a burst of C.Wesley coming on...
Jesus, transporting sound!The joy of earth and heaven;No other help is found,No other name is given,By which we can salvation have;But Jesus came the world to save.
Jesus, harmonious name!It charms the hosts above;They evermore proclaimAnd wonder at his love;'Tis all their happiness to gaze,'Tis heaven to see our Jesu's face.
His name the sinner hears,And is from sin set free;'Tis music in his ears,'Tis life and victory;New songs do now his lips employ,And dances his glad heart for joy.
Stung by the scorpion sin,My poor expiring soulThe balmy sound drinks in,And is at once made whole:See there my Lord upon the tree!I hear, I feel, he died for me.
O unexampled love!O all-redeeming grace!How swiftly didst thou moveTo save a fallen race!What shall I do to make it knownWhat thou for all mankind hast done?
O for a trumpet voice,On all the world to call!To bid their hearts rejoiceIn him who died for all;For all my Lord was crucified,For all, for all my Saviour died!
