[Not peace but a divisive sword]

But the multitude of the city was divided: &c. —xiv. 4.

Not peace but a divisive sword
On earth the Saviour sends;
His enemies are by the word
Distinguish'd from His friends;
But if the world refuse to know
The joys His people feel,
Better, that part to heaven should go,
Than all rush on to hell.
No neuters in the Christian war,
But all are friends or foes;

290

And lo, I for the truth declare;
I have my party chose;
Safe on the apostolic side,
(For there my Lord I see,)
Jesus, I still resolve to' abide
In life and death with Thee.
