Matthew 27: nearest Thou not how many things they, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Yes; their slanderous Ties I hear.
As one that hears them not,
Silent at the bar appear
Where truth is never sought:
Let them every evil say,
Against the servants testify:
Judged in man's unrighteous day,
I as my Lord reply.
