The golden rule she has pursued

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Global Praise 1 (Rev. ed.) #53 (2000) Lyrics: 1 The golden rule she has pursued, and did to others as she would others should do to her: justice composed her upright soul, justice did all her thoughts control, and formed her character. 2 Affliction, poverty, disease, drew out her soul in soft distress, the wretched to relieve: in all the works of love employed, her sympathizing soul enjoyed the blessedness to give. 3 Her Savior in his members seen, a stranger she received him in, an hungry Jesus fed, tended her sick, imprisoned Lord, and flew in all his wants to afford her ministerial aid. 4 A nursing mother to the poor, for them she husbanded her store, her life, her all, bestowed; for them she labored day and night, in doing good her whole delight, in copying after God. 5 Away, my tears and selfish sighs! The happy saint in paradise requires us not to mourn; but rather keep her life in view, and still her shining steps pursue, till all to God return.

Man Made of Earth by Earth He Heals

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #107 (2024) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Man made of earth by earth He heals! The creature is whate’er He wills Who gave it first to be: Clay in th’ Almighty’s hands restores Our bodily, or mental powers, And gives the blind to see. 2. Your touch medicinal we prove; Our blindness it does still remove; The unction of your grace Opens our faith’s enlightened eyes, And lo! with rapturous surprize We see your lovely face! 3. When Jesus bade me first believe, My spirit did its sight receive, Though long by nature blind; To Christ at his command I went, And found him by his Father sent, The Savior of mankind. 4. His Spirit drew me to the pool, Which makes a world of sinners whole, The purple fountain showed, The balm infallible applied, And pointed out the Crucified, And plunged me in his blood. 5. ’Twas there I washed my sins away, I triumphed in the gospel-day, To paradise restored: And clearly still I all things view, But nothing half so fair as you, So heav’nly as my Lord.

O love divine, how sweet thou art!

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #260 (2010) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O love divine, how sweet thou art! When shall I find my longing heart all taken up by thee? I thirst, I faint and die to prove the greatness of redeeming love, the love of Christ to me. 2 Stronger his love than death or hell; its riches are unsearchable: the first-born sons of light desire in vain its depth to see; they cannot reach the mystery, the length and breadth and height. 3 God only knows the love of God; O that it now were shed abroad in this poor stony heart! For love I sigh, for love I pine; this only portion, Lord, be mine, be mine this better part. 4 For ever would I take my seat with Mary at the Master's feet: be this my happy choice; my only care, delight, and bliss, my joy, my heaven on earth, be this, to hear the Bridegroom's voice.
