Matthew 17:12: In every age, the Saviour's grace

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

In every age, the Saviour's grace
Doth preachers of repentance raise.
Some zealous saint the law restores,
Confounds the idol-worshippers,
Compels the great themselves to hear,
Thunders in every thoughtless ear.
Alarms us by a serious call,
And shows 'ikio. perfect 7vay to all.
