John 11:40: I Lord Thy saying I receive

I Lord Thy saying I receive,
As spoken now to me,
If the promise I believe
I shall Thy glory see.
Shall from mine offences freed
Both see and feel Thy saving power,
Rise triumphant from the dead.
And die and sin no more.

Gladly I believe the word.

And wait the truth to prove,
To Thine image here restored,
The life of spotless love:
Walking in my Saviour's sight
I here shall find Thine utmost grace,
Then with all the sons of light
Behold Thy open face.
