Acts 14:1: They spake more boldly than before

They spake more boldly than before,
Demonstrating the Spirit's power
Who ready utterance gave;
They spake, commission'd from above
To publish their Redeemer's love,
And listening souls to save.

Gentiles oxAJeivs at once believed,
And both into the fold received
Were in one body join'd
Through Jesus reconciled to God,
Whose grace on all alike bestow'd
The Saviour of mankind.

Who now dispense the pardoning word,
So let us speak and preach the Lord,
That numbers may embrace
Their Saviour in their hearts reveal'd,
And live with all His Spirit fill'd,
With all His life of grace.
