Jesus, the Crucified, his Lord and God!
I deemed it blasphemy; I onward went
To persecute and kill; but on my way
His dying prayer was ever in mine ear,
And in mine eyes the glory of his face,
Dying, like Abel, martyred for the truth,
Dying, like Moses, in the light of God.
I deemed it blasphemy; I onward went
To persecute and kill; but on my way
His dying prayer was ever in mine ear,
And in mine eyes the glory of his face,
99
Dying, like Moses, in the light of God.
