Lord, Remove the Veil Away

Author: Friedrich G. Klopstock; Jane L. Borthwick Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 13 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord, remove the veil away, Let us see Thyself today: Thou who camest from on high, For our sins to bleed and die, Help us now to cast aside All that would our hearts divide; With the Father and the Son, Let Thy living Church be one. 2. Oh, from earthly cares set free, Let us find our rest in Thee; May our toils and conflicts cease In the calm of Sabbath peace; That Thy people here below Something of the bliss may know, Something of the rest and love, In the Sabbath-home above. 3. Give our souls the spotless dress Of Thy perfect righteousness; So at length each welcome guest Then shall enter to the feast, Take the harp and raise the song, All Thy ransomed ones among; Earthly cares and sorrows o’er, Joys to last forevermore.
