| CHAPTER XI. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
2600.
[Let the true servant of the Lord]
They...of the circumcision contended with, &c.
—xi. 2.
Let the true servant of the Lord
Be blamed for publishing the word
Which God vouchsafes to bless,
Let men from a false zeal gainsay,
And censure on the preacher lay
To balance his success.
Be blamed for publishing the word
Which God vouchsafes to bless,
Let men from a false zeal gainsay,
And censure on the preacher lay
To balance his success.
Their narrowness of heart they show;
But God permits it should be so
In wisdom and in grace;
Better the Jews should still contend,
Than Jesus' minister commend,
And poison him with praise.
