Hymnal: Christ in Song #783 (1908) First Line: He who seeks the truth, and trembles Lyrics: 1. He who seeks the truth, and trembles At the dangers he must brave, Merits not the name of Freeman; He at best is but a slave. 2. Be thou like the noble ancients: Scorn the threat that bids thee fear; Speak! no matter what betide thee; Let them strike, but let them hear. 3. Be thou like the first apostles, Be thou like heroic Paul; If a free thought seeks expression, Speak it boldly! speak it all! 4. Fearlessly face thine accusers! Scorn the prison, rack, or rod! If thou hast a truth to utter, Speak, and leave the rest to God. Topics: Living His Life Loyalty to Christ Languages: English Tune Title: SHIRLEY
