Just to Behold His Face

Derrick Jackson • English

Primary Scripture: Revelation 22:3-5

Verse 1

Not just to kneel with the angels, And not to see loved ones who've gone; And it's not just to drink at the fountain That is under the great white throne; Not for the crown that He'll give me That I'm trying to run this race; I know all that I'll want up in heaven Is just to behold His face!

Chorus

Oh, just to behold His face! Just to behold His face, His face! Oh, all that I'll want up in heaven Is just to behold His face, behold His face!

Verse 2

Not just to join in the chorus, And sing with those that are blest; Nor to bathe my soul that is weary In the sea of heavenly rest; But I'll look for the One who has saved me From a death of sin and disgrace; I'll have joy when I get up in heaven, Oh, just to behold His face!

Chorus

Oh, just to behold His face! Just to behold His face, His face! Oh, all that I'll want up in heaven Is just to behold His face, behold His face!
