Whether the Word Be Preached or Read

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: The Book of the Church : Holy Scripture Lyrics: Whether the Word be preached or read, no saving benefit I gain from empty sounds or letters dead; unprofitable all and vain, unless by faith thy word I hear and see its heavenly character. Unmixed with faith, the Scripture gives no comfort, life, or light to see, but me in darker darkness leaves, implunged in deeper misery, overwhelmed with nature's sorest ills. The Spirit saves, the letter kills. If God enlighten through his Word, I shall my kind Enlightener bless; but void and naked of my Lord, what are all verbal promises? Nothing to me, till faith divine inspire, inspeak, and make them mine. Jesus, the appropriating grace 'tis thine on sinners to bestow. Open mine eyes to see thy face, open my heart thyself to know. And then I through thy Word obtain sure present, and eternal gain. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 3:5-6
