Matthew 13:28: Wilt thou then that we go and gather them tip.?

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)

Religion

His bhnd exterminating zeal
The eager proselyte employs.
Sends all the tares at once to hell.
Nor sees that he the wheat destroys;
Till meeken'd by the light Divine
He his own hasty spirit perceives,
No more prevents his Lord's design,
But all to that great day he leaves.
