[Saviour, at Thy command I speak]

The high priest . . . said unto Him, Answerest, &c. —xxvi. 62.

Saviour, at Thy command I speak,
Or suffering in the truth's defence,
I stand, like Thee, submissive, meek,
Nor plead my injured innocence:
Thy silence teaches me to waive
The vehement, vain apology;
Thy silence the example gave,
And bought the speechless grace for me.
