Religion
Acts 24:24, 25: He sent for Paul, and heard him, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
No smooth-tongued orator is he,
But foe to all iniquity,
The greatest dares reprove,
A preacher rational of grace,
Explains the life of righteousness,
Sobriety, and love.
He preaches Christ, and faith in Him,
Who died His people to redeem,
Who soon in judgment comes,
And those that made Him die in vain,
That dead in wilful sin remain,
To death eternal dooms.
