 | CHAPTER XXII. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley |  |
1550.
[Who Jesus' spirit knows]
Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far, &c.
—xxii. 51.
Who Jesus' spirit knows,
Whatever wrongs he feel
Can never magistrates oppose,
Or force with force repel:
If magistrates abuse
Their just authority,
He counts it gain his life to lose
And keep his conscience free.
Whatever wrongs he feel
Can never magistrates oppose,
Or force with force repel:
If magistrates abuse
Their just authority,
He counts it gain his life to lose
And keep his conscience free.
The single miracle
He did unask'd, unsought,
A persecuting foe to heal
The Friend of sinners wrought.
Not from Himself to' avert
The death He came to prove,
But mercy mild inclined His heart,
But pure unbounded love.
