Mark 14:41: Into the hands of sinful men

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Into the hands of sinful men
Is Holiness Himself betray'd,
Sinners to save from Satan's den.
To snatch them from the' infernal shade.
The hour is come by nature fear'd,
For which so long His spirit pined,
For which He in the flesh appear'd,
To honour God, and save mankind.
