Mark 5:40: Still the faithless world deride

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Still the faithless world deride
Jesus and His witnesses.
Us who in His power confide
In His love the dead to raise:
Still their mockings we despise.
Daily, Lord, Thy wonders see.
Souls who from their sins arise
Quicken'd by a word from Thee.
