Matthew 28:15: So they took the money, and did as they, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

They always. Lord, who money love
Thy bitterest persecutors prove:
The Pharisees Thy life pursued,
The traitor bargain'd for Thy blood:
The soldiers to conceal Thy rise,
For money sold their current lies;
And worldly priests their malice spend
On Thee and Thine, till time shall end.
