Lo! He comes with clouds descending, Once for favoured sinners slain; Thousand thousand Saints attending Swell the triumph of His train.
Charles Wesley Quotes
Long my imprisoned spirit lay Fast bound in sin and nature’s night; Thine eye diffused a quickening ray - I woke, the dungeon flamed with light, My chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth, and followed thee.
