Acts 26:29: Except these bonds

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

A ufferer for his Saviour's cause
Cannot for sufferings pray,
Nor would the' anticipated cross
On weak beginners lay:
He wishes them to rest unknown,
Conceal'd from grief and shame,
lill Jesus calls them forth to own,
And triumph through His name.
