 | CHAPTER IX. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley |  |
1915.
[Hear what the wise and learned say!]
Give God the praise: we know that this man, &c.
—ix. 24.
Hear what the wise and learned say!
“This Man pretending to do good,
To show the blind their heavenly way,
And teach the' illiterate multitude,
The sabbath He profanely breaks,
And contrary to order speaks.”
“This Man pretending to do good,
To show the blind their heavenly way,
And teach the' illiterate multitude,
The sabbath He profanely breaks,
And contrary to order speaks.”
We hear, but cannot think with them,
Or to their bold assertions trust,
Or from appearances condemn
Blindly implicitly unjust,
But Jesu's ministers receive;
And thus the praise to God we give.
