In Vain Would Boasting Reason Find

Author: A. Steele, 1716-78 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #254 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 In vain would boating reason find The path to happiness and God; Her weak directions leave the mind Bewildered in a doubtful road. 2 Jesus, Thy words alone impart Eternal life, on these I live; Here sweeter comforts cheer my heart Than all the pow'rs of nature give. 3 Here let my constant feet abide; Thou art the true, the living Way. Let Thy good Spirit be my guide To the bright realms of endless day. 4 The various forms that men devise To shake my faith with treach'rous art I scorn as vanity and lies And bind Thy Gospel to my heart.
