Author: Rufus H. Cornelius, 1872-1933 Hymnal: One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism #465 (2018) Meter: 12.12.12.11 with refrain First Line: As I journey through the land singing as I go Refrain First Line: Oh, I want to see Him, look upon His face Lyrics: 1 As I journey through the land singing as I go,
Pointing souls to Calvary– to the crimson flow,
Many arrows pierce my soul from without, within;
But my Lord leads me on, through Him I must win.
Refrain:
Oh, I want to see Him, look upon His face,
There to sing forever of His saving grace;
On the streets of Glory let me lift my voice;
Cares all past, home at last, ever to rejoice.
2 When in service for my Lord dark may be the night,
But I'll cling more close to Him, He will give me light;
Satan's snares may vex my soul, turn my thoughts aside;
But my Lord goes ahead, leads whate'er betide. [Refrain]
3 When in valleys low I look toward the mountain height,
And behold my Savior there, leading in the fight,
With a tender hand outstretched toward the valley low,
Guiding me, I can see as I onward go. [Refrain]
4 When before me billows rise from the mighty deep,
Then my Lord directs my bark; He doth safely keep,
And He leads me gently on through this world below;
He's a real friend to me, oh, I love Him so. [Refrain] Topics: The Gospel in the Christian Life Christian Life, Discipleship; Providence of Jesus Christ Languages: English Tune Title: SEE HIM
