Verses this song echoes or alludes toLyrics
A bigot obstinately wrong,
Yet certain he is right,
May confident continue long
’Gainst Jesus Christ to fight; (Acts 26:9)
May persecute the witnesses
With blind pernicious zeal, (Acts 9:1-2, Acts 22:3-4, Gal. 1:13-14)
And, while he thinks his God to please, (John 16:2)
Rejoice the fiends in hell.
