Mark 14:62: Silent long the Prisoner stood

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Silent long the Prisoner stood,
But not through guilty tear;
Bold at last the Son of God
Asserts His character.
Makes to God His just appeal,
Vho every heart will soon display,
Cites His judge the truth to feel
At that tremendous day.
