L.M.

LORD Jesus Christ, we seek Thy face;

Within the veil we bow the knee,

Oh, let Thy glory fill the place,

And bless us while we wait on Thee.

2

We thank Thee for the precious blood

That purged our sins and brought us nigh,

All cleansed and sanctified to God,

Thy holy Name to magnify.

3

Shut in with Thee far, far above

The restless world that wars below,

We seek to learn and prove Thy love,

Thy wisdom and Thy grace to know.

4

The brow that once with thorns was bound,

Thy hands, Thy side, we fain would see,

Draw near, Lord Jesus, glory-crowned,

And bless us while we wait on Thee.
