Acts 28:11: A ship,... whose sign was, Castor and Pollux

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

Go, sacred ship, from stormy seas
Secure, thy heavenly treasure bear,
Not left to Pagan deities
But safe in Providence's care;
Protected by a nobler sign
Through Jesus' worshipper thou art,
The Saviour's cross and blood Divine,
His God he carries in his heart!
