Glorification with Christ

Verse 1

By grace we know, to us it's clear, When Christ, our Saviour, shall appear, We shall be like him, O what bliss! For we shall see him as he is.

Verse 2

When as he is, we him descry, In spirit's light and mystery; Unnumber'd beauties in him shine, Beauties of God, and man divine:

Verse 3

Beauties of holiness and grace, Adorn our Saviour's lovely face; Eternal truth and righteousness Doth he, in purity possess.

Verse 4

When as he is, we him do see, From evy'r spot and wrinkle free: How glorious is the worthy Lamb! How venerable is his name!

Verse 5

But, O what glorious Grace is this! That when we see him as he is, We see ourselves, and are assur'd That we are like our dearest Lord.

Verse 6

As we his mystic fulness are, He gives us each a member's share In all his grace: the favour'd bride Is with his likeness satisfied.
