The Savior's Face

Author: Edward Augustus Collier Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5921 First Line: How sweet, O Lord, Thy word of grace Lyrics: 1. How sweet, O Lord, Thy word of grace Which bids a sinner seek Thy face, And never seek in vain, And never seek in vain; That face, once set so steadfastly To meet Thy cross of agony, Can never me disdain, Can never me disdain. 2. Thy visage, marred and crowned with thorn, Thou didst not hide from grief and scorn, Nor from the dew of night, Nor from the dew of night; Yet, in that face a love appears Which scatters all my gloomy fears, And fills my soul with light, And fills my soul with light. 3. The heavens declare Thy power and love; In all Thy works, below, above, Thy majesty I trace, Thy majesty I trace, But mercy shines not in the skies, And hope within my spirit dies, Until I see Thy face, Until I see Thy face. 4. The brightness of Thy glory, Lord, Fills Heaven and earth and written Word With beams of heavenly grace, With beams of heavenly grace; But all the hosts of Heaven shine With no such radiance divine As Thy most blessèd face, As Thy most blessèd face. Languages: English Tune Title: [How sweet, O Lord, Thy word of grace]
