[Rulers in church and state give ear]
Be it known unto you all, and to all the people, &c.
—iv. 10.
Rulers in church and state give ear;
And all the house of Israel, hear,
Hear His appointed witnesses,
And Christ the crucified confess;
Jesus the Lord, like us, receive,
Who lives and shall for ever live.

Author of immortality
By sin ye nail'd Him to the tree,
But God hath raised again His Son,
And made His life on sinners known,
And souls diseased, and spirits lame,
Are daily heal'd through Jesus' name.

Ye see the wonders of His hand,
The men that in your presence stand!
One step towards heaven they could not go;
But now the power of faith they know;
They walk in Christ, their feet are sure,
And pardon brings their perfect cure.
