We limit not the truth of God

Author: George Rawson, 1807-89 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 27 hymnals Topics: Revelation Lyrics: 1 We limit not the truth of God to our poor reach of mind, to notions of our day and sect, crude, partial and confined: no, let a new and better hope within our hearts be stirred: the Lord has yet more light and truth to break forth from his word. 2 Our faithful forebears searching went the first steps of the way; this was the dawning, yet to grow into this perfect day. And grow it shall, our glorious sun will brighter rays afford: the Lord has yet more light and truth to break forth from his word. 3 O Father, Son, and Spirit, send us increase from above; enlarge, expand all living souls to comprehend your love; and make us all go on to know, with nobler powers conferred, that you have yet more light and truth to break forth from your word.
