Acts 28:16: We came to Rome

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

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

Religion

A captive, poor, despised, and bound,
His entry into Rojhc he makes,
Yet greater far than victors crown'd
Whom Jesus for His servant takes!
The plagues and scourges of mankind
They forced the slaves their yoke to feel,
But Pattl is come the world to' unbind,
And triumph o'er the hosts of hell.
