Acts 22:6: It came to pass, that, as I made my journey, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

,1 A Man of God, like holy Paul,
Doth still his pardon'd sins confess,
In season due proclaims to all
The wondrous works of heavenly grace;
Not studious of his own applause,
But zealous for his Master's cause.

What Jesus for his soul hath done
In wisdom meek he testifies,
Makes his dear Lord to sinners known
That they like Him may wake and rise,
And in the heart-felt gospel prove
The power Divine of saving love.
