I glory in plainness
And in gospel truths
I glory in Jesus
For my soul He moves
In the pursuit of intelligence

Is to increase in light.. ours to find
The hand of God can be seen
In all the fields of learning
If to Him one humbly leans
And to His Word we are turning

JS-H 1: 11 While I was laboring under the extreme difficulties caused by the contests of these parties of religionists, I was one day reading the Epistle of James, first chapter and fifth verse, which reads: If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
