Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women? whither is thy beloved turned aside? that we may seek him with thee. (Song of Sol. 6:1) |
Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard Him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world. (John 4:42) |
But boundless joy shall fill our hearts, When gazing on Thy face, We fully see what faith imparts, And glory crowns Thy grace. |
For Thou exceedest all the fame Our ears have ever heard; How happy we who know Thy name, And trust Thy faithful Word! |
