- We would see Jesus; for the shadows length en Across the lit - tie land-scape of our life ; We would see Jesus, our weak faith to strength en, For the last weariness, the final strife.
- We would see Jesus, the great rock foundation Where on our feet were set by sovereign grace ; Nor life nor death, with all their agitation, Can thence remove us, if we see his face.
- We would see Jesus; other lights are paling, Which for long years we have re-joiced to see ; The bless-ings of our pil-grim-age are failing ; We would not mourn them, for we go to thee.
- We would see Jesus ; yet the spirit lingers Round the dear objects it has loved so long, And earth from earth can scarce unclasp its fingers ; Our love to thee makes not this love less strong.
- We would see Jesus; sense is all too binding, And heaven appears too dim, too far a way ; We would see thee, thy -self our hearts reminding What thou hast suffered, our great debt to pay.
- We would see Jesus ; this is all we're needing; Strength, joy, and willingness come with the sight; We would see Jesus, dying, risen, pleading; Then welcome day, and fare-well mortal night. A-Men.
