Acts 28: There came a viper out of the heat, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Escaped from the tempestuous sea
Who dared in God confide,
Py dangers new his faith must be
By fresh temptations tried j
The viper fasten'd on his hand
And shook into the flame
Shall show that both by sea and land
His Saviour is the same.
