1 Voir mon sauveur face à face
Voir Jésus dans sa beauté,
O joie! ô suprême grâce!
O bonheur! félicité!

Choeur:
Oui, dans ta magnificence
Je te verrai, divin Roi!
Pour toujours dans ta présence
Je serai semblable à toi!

2 Ta gloire est encore voilée,
Ah! d’un voile ensanglanté!
Bientôt sera révélée
Ton ineffable beauté. [Choeur]

3 Oh! quels transports d’allégresse,
Quand tes yeux baissés sur moi
Me diront avec tendresse:
"Je mourus aussi pour toi!" [Choeur]
