Matthew 27:14: Happy soul who Jesus knows

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Happy soul who Jesus knows
By silence to proclaim!
Nothing more confounds his foes
Or glorifies the Lamb:
Speechless when we stand, alike
Unmoved by man's reproach or praise,
More than miracle we strike
And all the world amaze.
