Speak thou the truth: let others fence

Author: Dean Henry Alford, 1810-1871 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Speak thou the truth: let others fence, And trim their words for pay; In pleasant sunshine of pretence Let others bask their day. 2 Show thou thy light: if conscience gleam, Set not thy bushel down; The smallest spark may send his beam O'er hamlet, tower, and town. 3 Hold on, hold on thou hast the rock; The foes are on the sand: The first world-tempest's ruthless shock Scatters their shifting strand; 4 While each wild gust the mist shall clear We now see darkly through, And justified at last appear The true, in Him that's true.
