Mark 11:27, 28: The chief priests, and the scribes,... say, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)

Religion

How blind the priests who could not see
The Godhead in our great High Priest,
Or own the Lord's authority
In countless miracles confess'd:
How dark the scribes, who dared pretend
To make the law and Scripture known,
Nor knew its Author, scope, and end.
Spirit, and truth, was Christ alone.
