Your Saviour held His peace

The day when Jesus stood alone
And felt the hearts of men like stone;
And knew He came to atone --
That day "He held his peace."

My friend, have you far, far much less,
With rage, which you call righteousness,
Resented slights with great distress?
Your Saviour "Held His peace."
