Mark 15:31: Insults in the' improper hour

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Insults in the' improper hour
Christ forbids us to repress,
Arms us with His Spirit's power.
Strengthens us — to hold our peace!
Meekly then His mind we show.
Silently the truth defend.
More than signs and wonders do,
Suffer all things to the end.
