Saturday, May 24, 2025 Feast of John and Charles Wesley, Priests, Poets, Teachers, 1791 & 1788 
O for a heart to praise my God,A heart from sin set free,A heart that always feels Thy bloodSo freely shed for me. 
A heart resigned, submissive, meek,My great Redeemer’s throne,Where only Christ is heard to speak,Where Jesus reigns alone. 
A humble, lowly, contrite, heart,Believing, true and clean,Which neither life nor death can partFrom Christ who dwells within. 
A heart in every thought renewedAnd full of love divine,Perfect and right and pure and good,A copy, Lord, of Thine.
... Charles Wesley (1707-1788), A Collection of Hymns, for the use of the people called Methodists, John Wesley, London: Wesleyan Conference Office, 1876, p. 322
