Absurd and vain attempt! to bind

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #350 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Absurd and vain attempt! to bind With iron chains the free-born mind, To force conviction, and reclaim The wand'ring by destructive flame. 2 Bold arrogance! to snatch from heav'n Dominion not to mortals giv'n; O'er conscience to usurp the throne, Accountable to God alone. 3 Jesus! thy gentle law of love Does no such cruelties approve; Mild as thy self, thy doctrine wields No arms but what persuasion yields. 4 By proofs divine, and reason strong, It draws the willing soul along; And conquests to thy church acquires By eloquence which heav'n inspires. 5 O happy, who are thus compell'd To the rich feast, by Jesus held! May we this blessing know, and prize The light which liberty supplies. Topics: Social Duties Languages: English
