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
Face to face shall I behold Him,
far beyond the starry sky;
face to face in all His glory,
I shall see Him by and by!
Only faintly now I see Him,
with the darkling veil between,
but a blessed day is coming,
when His glory shall be seen.
What rejoicing in His presence,
when are banished grief and pain;
when the crooked ways are straightened
and the dark things shall be plain.
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
