Acts 17:17: Pure apostolic zeal
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
Pure apostolic zeal
Cannot inactive lie;
A preacher will his message tell
Whoe'er the truth deny;
He must the tidings spread
In synagogues and streets,
And Jesus risen from the dead
Proclaim to all he meets.
