Religion
John 18:38: His innocence we daily find
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
His innocence we daily find
Acknowledged and abandon'd too
By men, who favourably inclined
To truth, yet tremble to pursue
The narrow path by Jesus trod,
And suffer with a patient God.
Jesus, the only faultless Man,
Thee would I constantly confess
Thy sovereign Deity maintain,
Stand by Thy hated witnesses,
Undaunted for Thy cause contend,
And Thee in life and death defend.
