Lord Jesus Christ, we seek Thy face;

|
| 1. | Lord Jesus Christ, we seek Thy face; |
| | Within the veil we bow the knee; |
| | Oh, 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. |
