Ye shall be blessed, the Saviour said,
When those men shall you hate;
They’ll cast you out, and you reproach,
And from them separate.
Your name cast out, reproach and shame,
As evil though you was;
Oh, suffer thus for Jesus’ name,
Obey his righteous laws.
To-day his scripture is fulfilled,
But let it not annoy;
For great is your reward in heaven,
Rejoice and leap for joy.
They thus unto the prophets did,
Yet they did go their way;
Oh, may we, too, in Christ our Head,
At last triumphant be.
