Poem by Charles Wesley

* * *

Tried is every faithful man,
As gold and silver tried,
Purged by grief, and purged by pain,
And seven times purified:
All who stand the fiery test,
Receive Thine image from above,
Bear Thy favorite name impressed,
Thy favorite name of love.

Brought into the fire I am,
And Thou wilt bring me through,
I shall call upon Thy name,
With all the creatures new;
I shall prove Thine utmost word,
Brightened with Thy glory, shine,
Claimed by Thee, shall claim my Lord
Through endless ages mine.

1. Ye Thirsty for God, To Jesus Give Ear
2. Eternal Spir­it, Come
3. Father, Saviour of Mankind
4. Extended on a Cursed Tree
5. Weary Souls, That Wander Wide
