Acts 14 v.11-17

********

At Lystra, Paul and Barnabas

The gods have come  to us

So said the people when man lame

Was healed, to him they came

 

Paul and Barnabas they did say

Sirs, why you act this way?

We be not gods, but men like you

With humanity true

 

And we preach to you, that you turn

From these vain things and learn

That God He is the God living

Who has made every thing

 

Heaven and earth, and too the sea

All things that in them be

Who in times past He did allow

Us walk own ways, yet now

 

Now see, he did leave us witness

Of how He would us bless

In doing good, and giving rain

From heaven, then sun again

 

And too giving seasons fruitful

Providing unto all

Filling our hearts with food, gladness

Hs graces shown, no less
