Acts 7:51: Ye do always resist the Holy Ghost

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)

Religion

Who act the persecutor's part
A stubborn stiff-neck'd Jewish race,
Uncircumcised in ears and heart
Ye still resist the Spirit of grace,
Harden your heart, and stop your ears,
When God commands you to repent,
And run upon the messengers,
And stone the Sender in the sent.
