[The members here and Head above]

Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou Me? —ix. 4.

The members here and Head above,
United in the Spirit of love
One mystic body make,
And Jesus, once a Man of woe
The sufferings of His saints below
Doth still in heaven partake.
Oppress'd we in His Spirit groan;
Our sorrows He accounts His own,
And answers sigh for sigh;
Fighting with God our foes are found,
And touching us, they madly wound
The apple of His eye.
235

Hear this, thou persecutor hear,
And smote from heaven with sudden fear
Before thy Smiter fall;
The madness of resistance find,
And know—the Saviour of mankind
Is rich in grace for all.
