CHAPTER XIX. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
2245.
[When He could Himself defend]
And saith unto Jesus, Whence art Thou? &c.
—xix. 9.
When He could Himself defend,
The Saviour holds His peace,
Our apologies to end,
And clamours to suppress:
Hear we then the speechless Lamb
Who doth our eagerness reprove,
Silence and for ever shame
Our self-excusing love.
