John 9:16: Jesus, Thy disciples here

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Jesus, Thy disciples here
The judging world divide.
Praised by some as men sincere,
By others vilified:
Various as their passions. Lord,
The thoughts of men will ever be;
Thus they verify Thy word.
And treat Thy church like Thee.
