John 8:40: Ye seek to kill Me, a man that hath told you, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Who in the faith of Abi-aha?fi tread,
Obediently receive
The truth that doth from God proceed,
And lovingly believe:
But his pretended children still
Reject the truth abhorr'd.
Malign the witnesses, and kill
And drive them to their Lord.
