Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow His steps. 1 Peter 2:21 O voiceless calm of Jesus, Degraded, mocked, and scourged: E'en Pilate marvelled at the grace Which answered not a word. How silently He suffered! No balm to bring relief: The sweetness of forgiving love Was mingled with His grief. To Him all pow'r was given, And none can stay His hand: Angelic legions wait to hear The word of His command. His gentle voice of healing The sick and weary heard; Yet for Himself in deepest woe He uttered not a word. O let that lowly silence Speak volumes to the heart, When burning words form on the lips, And angry feelings start. When tempted in the conflict To rise in self-defence, The silent pow'r of conquering love Can pardon the offence. Take wrong, and let forbearance In meekness ever live; It may be manly to resent, 'Tis godly to forgive!
