Author: C. J. B. Hymnal: Melodies of Salvation #245 (1901) First Line: Tho' the world may see no beauty Refrain First Line: Yes, His face to me is lovely Lyrics: 1 Tho’ the world may see no beauty
In the lowly Nazarene,
Yet to me His face is lovely,
None like Him hath mortal seen.
Chorus:
Yes, His face to me is lovely,
Beaming bright with love divine;
Of His love I’m all unworthy,
Yet this precious Friend is mine.
2 Some esteem the Saviour lightly,
Others scorn His holy name,
I adore the King of Glory,
Who hath borne my sin and shame. [Chorus]
3 How could I but love Him fondly,
Who such love to me has shown?
Earth to me has seem’d far brighter
Since this precious Friend I’ve known. [Chorus]
4 Tho’ His face was marked with sadness,
While He walked this vale below,
Yet His smile bro’t joy and gladness
Unto hearts once filled with woe. [Chorus]
