Acts 19:37: Ye have brought hither these men, which are, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Reason and probity forbid
Even those that Christ deny
To second an outrageous deed,
Or join the general cry;
Let Christians hence instructed -be
To stand in truth's defence,
And when the just oppress'd they see
To plead for innocence.
