CHAPTER VII. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
1271.
[The man who Christ hath truly known]
A certain centurion's servant, who was, &c.
—vii. 2.
The man who Christ hath truly known,
His faith by works of mercy proves,
Respects his servant as a son,
In him his heavenly Master loves;
Conscious that God will equal make,
Or crown the slave with brighter stars,
He humbly now for Jesus' sake
His servant to himself prefers.
