The New Church Hymnal ‎#491

491. Face to Face

1 Face to face with Christ, my Savior,
Face to face, what will it be?
When with rapture I behold Him,
Jesus Christ who died for me.

Refrain:
Face to face I shall behold Him,
Far beyond the starry sky;
Face to face in all His glory,
I shall see Him by and by!

2 Only faintly now I see Him,
With the dark'ning veil between,
But a blessed day is coming,
When His glory shall be seen. [Refrain]

3 What rejoicing in His presence,
When are banished grief and pain;
When the crooked ways are straightened,
And the dark things shall be plain. [Refrain]

4 Face to face! O blissful moment!
Face to face, to see and know;
Face to face with my Redeemer,
Jesus Christ, Who loves me so. [Refrain]
