CHAPTER XV. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
2711.
[Deserters willing to come back]
Barnabas determined to take with them John, &c.
—xv. 37.
Deserters willing to come back
We should like Barnabas receive,
And yet of Paul example take
Nor fugitives uncensured leave,
Lest others should embolden'd be
As hirelings from the flock to flee.
We should like Barnabas receive,
And yet of Paul example take
Nor fugitives uncensured leave,
Lest others should embolden'd be
As hirelings from the flock to flee.
'Tis not a slight offence to start
And quit the post by heaven assign'd;
If once from Jesus I depart,
And cast the care of souls behind,
Whoe'er the penitent receive,
I never can myself forgive.
