“Deliver me from all mine offenses.”
Psalm 39:8
Jesus, my Saviour and my Prince,
Answer on me thy saving name,
Deliver me from all my sins,
The guilt, the sorrow, and the shame,
And from mine inmost soul remove
The power, the nature, and the love.
Selections from Charles Wesley’s Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762)
