Acts 16:20, 21: Disturbers of the public peace

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Disturbers of the public peace,
We do indeed molest
Poor souls who dwell in sinful ease,
And will not let them rest;
Truths which the world could never bear,
We openly avow,
Pardon in Jesus' blood declare —
And all may feel it now!
