Imposture shrinks from light
1
Imposture shrinks from light,And dreads the curious eye;But sacred truths the test invite,They bid us search and try.
2
O may we still maintainA meek, inquiring mind,Assured we shall not search in vain,But hidden treasures find.
3
With understanding blessed,Created to be free,Our faith on man we dare not rest,We trust alone in thee.
