1 Samuel 6:20: Who can Thy strict tribunal face

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)

Religion

Who can Thy strict tribunal face,
Or stand before the' Almighty's frown,
Approach Thee in Thy brightest place,
Look full upon Thy glorious throne!
God inaccessible Thou art;
Yet who by faith Thy Son receive,
Perfect in love, and pure in heart.
They here shall see Thy face, and live.
