305. That We Are Seen, O God, by Thee

C.M.
1
That we are seen, O God, by Thee — 
 
This is our happy lot — 
 
Presented faultless to Thine eye,
 
And all our sins forgot.
“And she called the name of the Lord that spake unto her, Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that seeth me?” (Genesis 16:13)
“Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy.” (Jude 24)
“For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.” (Hebrews 8:12)
2
Each hour of joy, this is the light
 
Which shines on all our ways;
 
And in affliction’s deepest gloom
 
Its power it still displays.
3
Then cheerfully through life we pass;
 
And if we’re called to die,
 
The valley’s shade we will not dread,
 
For Thou wilt still be nigh.
“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.” (Psalm 23:4)
