John 7:41, 42: Shall Christ come out of Galilee? Hath, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)

Religion

I Want the faith which reasons not,
Though rational, implicit too.
That simply by Thy Spirit taught.
Persuaded all Thy works are true.
No seeming contrariety
May make me stumble. Lord, at Thee.

Useless disputes, reflections vain,
Questions obscure, be cast aside.
The doubts I cannot yet explain
I leave to my unerring Guide;
And He my heavenly path shall show.
And all the truth I need to know.
