|
| 1 | O Lord! 'tis joy to look above, | Hebrews 1:3; Ephesians 3:17-19 |
| And see Thee on the throne, |
| To search the heights and depths of love |
| Which Thou to us hast shown. |
|
| 2 | To look beyond the long, dark night, | Romans 13:12; Colossians 1:12; John 17:24 |
| And hail the coming day, |
| When Thou, to all Thy saints in light, |
| Thy glories wilt display. |
|
| 3 | And, oh! 'tis joy the path to trace | Matthew 11:29; 1 John 2:6; 1 Peter 2:21; 1 John 1:3 |
| By Thee so meekly trod; |
| Learning of Thee to walk in grace, |
| And fellowship with God! |
|
| 4 | Joy to confess Thy blessèd name, | Romans 10:9; John 6:53-56; Matthew 11:28; John 1:29,36 |
| The virtue of Thy blood, |
| And to the wearied heart proclaim, |
| Behold the Lamb of God! |
