[Ye Jews of our days Who Heathens reject]

They of the circumcision...were astonished, &c. —x. 45.

Ye Jews of our days Who Heathens reject,
Confining the grace Of Christ to a sect,
His strange dispensation Of mercy adore,
While gospel salvation Is preach'd to the poor.
The sinners unclean Are wash'd in His blood,
The outcasts of men Accepted with God,
Through Jesus's merit They pardon receive,
And fill'd with the Spirit Of holiness live.
