[Just in your own eyes, Who Jesus reject]
Be it known therefore unto you that the, &c.
—xxviii. 28.
Just in your own eyes, Who Jesus reject,
And proudly despise His vilified sect,
The Jews of our nation Ye will not believe
Or know the salvation Which sinners receive.
The outcasts of men, The reprobate race,
As Heathens profane Their Saviour embrace;
Your hearts if ye harden, They thankfully hear
The news of a pardon And paradise near.
That kingdom of His Which Jesus imparts,
That rapturous peace Is sent to their hearts,
To Heathens is given Through faith in His blood
Forgiveness from heaven, Salvation from God.
The publicans hear His peace-giving word,
And sinners sincere Acknowledge their Lord,
His blessing inherit, His image retrieve,
And fill'd with His Spirit In paradise live.
