Egy Név Áll Messze Magasan

Representative Text

1 Egy Név áll messze magasan
Minden más név felett!
Így vallom, Jézus, boldogan:
Az Élet jött Veled!
Az Élet jött Veled!

2 E névre: Jézus, térdre hull,
Hódol majd minden lény!
Ő szól, s mi sötét, menekül!
Elűzi azt a fény,
Elűzi azt a fény!

3 E Névnél jobb és drágább nincs!
Ez törli mind, mi szenny!
Ó, Isten-küldte drága kincs,
Benned miénk a menny!
Benned miénk a menny!

4 E Névre hull le bűnbilincs,
A Sátán meghátrál!
Jézusban kárhozat már nincs!
A halott talpra áll!
A halott talpra áll!

5 Kegyelme oly dicsőn megáld,
Hol rút ínség honolt!
Ó, ember, hidd el, rég vár rád,
Ki engem átkarolt!
Ki engem átkarolt!

6 Ó, hadd hirdessem igédet:
Csak hit kell!—semmi más!
Megváltás nincsen kívüled!
Sem megigazulás!
Sem megigazulás!

7 Ezt vallom, hol még bűn honol:
Megment a kegyelem!
Szálljon bár szembe föld, pokol,
Én bátran hirdetem!
Én bátran hirdetem!

8 Ha majd a végső percem jő,
Szám Neved suttogja!
Így szóljon ajkam búcsúszava:
Ím: Isten Báránya!
Ím, Isten Báránya!

Charles Wesley was the youngest son and 18th child of Samuel and Susanna Wesley, and was born at Epworth Rectory, Dec. 18, 1707. In 1716 he went to Westminster School, being provided with a home and board by his elder brother Samuel, then usher at the school, until 1721, when he was elected King's Scholar, and as such received his board and education free. In 1726 Charles Wesley was elected to a Westminster studentship at Christ Church, Oxford, where he took his degree in 1729, and became a college tutor. In the early part of the same year his religious impressions were much deepene… Go to person page >
