When this passing world is done,
|
|
| 1. | When this passing world is done, |
| | When has sunk yon glaring sun, |
| | When we stand with Christ on high, |
| | Looking o'er life's history; |
| | Then, Lord, shall I fully know, |
| | Not till then, how much I owe. |
| 2. | When I stand before the throne |
| | Dressed in beauty not my own, |
| | When I see Thee as Thou art, |
| | Love Thee with unsinning heart; |
| | Then, Lord, shall I fully know, |
| | Not till then, how much I owe. |
| 3. | E'en on earth, as through a glass |
| | Darkly, let Thy glory pass; |
| | Make forgiveness feel so sweet; |
| | Make Thy Spirit's help so meet: |
| | E'en on earth, Lord, make me know |
| | Something of how much I owe. |
