[Let all who speak in Jesu's name]

If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles, &c. —iv. 11.

Let all who speak in Jesu's name,
To His submit their every word,
Implicit faith in them disclaim,
And send the hearers to their Lord;
Who doth His Father's will reveal,
The only Guide infallible.
Jesus, to me Thy mind impart,
Be Thou Thine own Interpreter,
Explain the Scripture to my heart,
That when the church Thy servant hear,
Taught by the oracles Divine,
They all may own, the word is Thine.
