Author: Alexander Stewart, 1843-1923 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11524 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Lord Jesus Christ, we seek Thy face Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, we seek Thy face;
Within the veil we bow the knee;
O let Thy glory fill the place!
And bless us while we wait on Thee.
2 We thank Thee for the precious blood
That purged our sins and brought us nigh;
All cleansed and sanctified to God,
Thy holy name to magnify.
3 Shut in with Thee far, far, above
The restless world that wars below;
We seek to learn and prove Thy love,
Thy wisdom and Thy grace to know.
4 The brow that once with thorns was bound,
Thy hands, Thy side, we fain would see;
Draw near, Lord Jesus, glory crowned,
And bless us while we wait on Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: GERMANY
