CHAPTER VII. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
1276.
[We here the sinner's history read]
Behold, there was a dead man carried out.
—vii. 12.
We here the sinner's history read,
Who dead in sin, and doubly dead
Is carrying to the tomb;
Happy, before he reach the pit,
If Jesus the procession meet,
And to his rescue come.
Who dead in sin, and doubly dead
Is carrying to the tomb;
Happy, before he reach the pit,
If Jesus the procession meet,
And to his rescue come.
Follow'd, and by the church deplored,
(That widow of her heavenly Lord,)
Insensible he lies;
The mother sad with pious tears
Bewails her son, till Christ appears,
And bids the dead arise.
(That widow of her heavenly Lord,)
Insensible he lies;
163
Bewails her son, till Christ appears,
And bids the dead arise.
