Acts 16:11, 12: From Troas,we came...to Samolhracia, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Highly favour'd them we call
Who the apostle heard,
While an holy preaching Paul
The joyful news declared;
We even we may now obtain
The grace as often as we will,
Read the words he utter'd then,
And hear him preaching still.
With Divine instructions fraught
We his epistles see,
Learn the heavenly truth he taught,
And taste the liberty:
Oh would all the truth embrace,
The welcome news with us receive,
Justified by Jesu's grace,
And saved, for ever live!
