Candace’s Man: Acts Poem 8

The Baptism of the Eunuch by Rembrandt van Rijn – Public Domain

---

Candace’s servant wisdom did seek

He searched the scriptures but his knowledge was weak

He needed a guide to show him the way

So the Spirit sent Philip to teach him that day

The truths he sought – were made plain

And soon to a certain water they came

And going down in it

A new child of God was born

And he carried the gospel

To Africa’s horn
