"Yet with the mind of Jesus steel'd / He cannot to entreaties yield"
Metaphor in Context
Yet with the mind of Jesus steel'd
He cannot to entreaties yield,
Or leave the bleeding Lamb,
Warn'd by the Spirit's clearest call
For Jesus' sake to give up all
And suffer for His name.
He cannot to entreaties yield,
Or leave the bleeding Lamb,
Warn'd by the Spirit's clearest call
For Jesus' sake to give up all
And suffer for His name.
