Verse 1
We must speak on, forbid by all,
And preach salvation in this name,
By Jesus’ own command we call,
On every soul, Behold the Lamb!
We teach, according to his will,
The faithful, acceptable word,
And long the universe to fill
With the pure doctrine of our Lord.
Verse 2
By countless acts of wickedness
The Prince of life ye seiz’d, and slew
The Man from heaven who bought our peace,
We surely charge his death on you:
Ye murtherers of incarnate God,
Ye speak the thing by us design’d,
We mean to bring his sprinkled blood
On you, ourselves, and all mankind.
