| CHAPTER X. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
2578.
[The angel might have preach'd his Lord]
Send...to Joppa, and call for one Simon, &c.
—x. 5.
The angel might have preach'd his Lord,
Or Christ proclaim'd Himself from heaven,
But God, to magnify His word,
The' appointed means of sins forgiven,
Commands a pious soul to hear
The gospel from His messenger.
Or Christ proclaim'd Himself from heaven,
But God, to magnify His word,
The' appointed means of sins forgiven,
Commands a pious soul to hear
The gospel from His messenger.
The angel from Jehovah sent,
But points him out the common road,
Directs to Jesu's instrument,
That man may preach a dying God:
And then the Lord His Son reveals,
And pardon by His Spirit seals.
