Worship and Service Hymnal ‎#477

477. Face to Face

1 Face to face with Christ, my Saviour,
Face to face--what will it be--
When with rapture I behold Him,
Jesus Christ who died for me?

Refrain:
Face to face I shall behold Him,
Far beyond the starry sky;
Face to face in all His glory,
I shall see Him by and by!

2 Only faintly now I see Him,
With the darkened veil between;
But a blessed day is coming
When His glory shall be seen. (Refrain)

3 What rejoicing in His presence
When are banished grief and pain;
When the crooked ways are straightened,
And the dark things shall be plain. (Refrain)

4 Face to face! O blissful moment!
Face to face--to see and know;
Face to face with my Redeemer,
Jesus Christ who loves me so. (Refrain)
