259. Ah, Yes, Lord Jesus (Thou Whose Heart

C.M.
by S.P. Tregelles
1
Ah, yes, Lord Jesus (Thou whose heart
 
Still for Thy saints doth care),
 
We shall behold Thee as Thou art,
 
And Thy full image bear.
“Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.” (1 Peter 5:7)
“Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.” (1 John 3:2)
2
Thy love sustains us by the way,
 
While pilgrims here below;
 
Thou dost, O Savior, day by day,
 
Thy suited grace bestow.
3
But oh! the more we learn of Thee,
 
And Thy rich mercy prove,
 
The more we long Thy face to see,
 
And fully prove Thy love.
4
Then, shine, Thou Bright and Morning Star,
 
Dispel the dreary gloom;
 
Oh take, from sin and grief afar,
 
Thy blood-bought people home!
