Let Me See Thy Face And Die

To Thee, great God of love I bow
And prostrate in Thy sight adore
By faith I see Thee passing now
I have, but still I ask for more

A glimpse of love cannot suffice
My soul for all Thy presence cries
I cannot see Thy face, and live
Then let me see Thy face, and die

Moses Thy backward parts might view
But not a perfect sight obtain
The gospel doth Thy fulness show
To us, by the commandment slain

The dead to sin shall find the grace
The pure in heart shall see Thy face
I cannot see Thy face, and live
Then let me see Thy face, and die

Surrounded by the saints of old
We now by faith approach to Thee
Shall all with open face behold
In Christ the glorious Deity

Shall see, and put the Godhead on
The nature of Thy sinless Son
I cannot see Thy face, and live
Then let me see Thy face, and die
Shall see, and put the Godhead on
The nature of Thy sinless Son
I cannot see Thy face, and live
Then let me see Thy face, and die
