 | CHAPTER IV. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley |  |
2421.
[God permits His works to be]
They asked, By what power, or by what name, &c.
—iv. 7.
God permits His works to be
By worldly judges tried,
Shall not ours the scrutiny
Of sinful men abide?
Though Thy hand therein appears,
Thy hand, O God, they will not own,
Sentencing the messengers,
For what our Lord hath done.
By worldly judges tried,
Shall not ours the scrutiny
Of sinful men abide?
Though Thy hand therein appears,
Thy hand, O God, they will not own,
Sentencing the messengers,
For what our Lord hath done.
Who our conduct scrutinize,
For this we dare not blame,
But because they shut their eyes,
Determined to condemn.
To the truth they will not yield,
Or proof infallible receive,
Though ten thousand souls are heal'd,
And to Thy glory live.
For this we dare not blame,
