Acts 22:19: We think by truth Divine impress'd

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

We think by truth Divine impress'd
When its full evidence we feel,
It must be soon by all confess'd
The gospel incontestable,
But nothing can the souls convert
Who Jesus Christ will not receive,
Subdue a stubborn bigot's heart,
Or force a Deist to believe.
