Lyics

NOT with our mortal eyes,

Have we beheld the Lord,

Yet we rejoice to hear his name,

And love him in his word.



On earth we want the sight

Of our Redeemer's face;

Yet, Lord, our inmost thoughts delight

To dwell upon thy grace.



And when we feel thy love,

Diviner joys arise;

On wings of faith we soar above

To mansions in the skies.
