Acts 26:9: A bigot obstinately wrong

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

A bigot obstinately wrong,
Yet certain he is right,
May confident continue long
Gainst Jesus Christ to fight;
May persecute the witnesses
With blind pernicious zeal,
And while he thinks his God to please
Rejoice the fiends in hell.
