A glory in the word we find

by Campbell's Collection

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 656 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

A glory in the word we find When grace restores our sight; But sin has darkened all the mind, And veiled the heavenly light, And veiled the heavenly light.

Verse 2

When God's own Spirit clears our view, How bright the doctrines shine! Their holy fruits and sweetness show The author is divine, The author is divine.

Verse 3

How blest are we, with open face To view Thy glory, Lord, And all Thy image here to trace, Reflected in Thy word! Reflected in Thy word!

Verse 4

O teach us, as we look, to grow In holiness and love. That we may long to see and know Thy glorious face above, Thy glorious face above.
