Lord, remove the veil away

Verse 1

Lord, remove the veil away, Let us see Thyself to-day! Thou who camest from on high, For our sins to bleed and die, Help us now to cast aside All that would our hearts divide; With the Father and the Son, Let Thy living Church be one.

Verse 2

O, from earthly cares set free, Let us find our rest in Thee! May our toils and conflicts cease In the calm of Sabbath peace, That Thy people here below Something of the bliss may know, Something of the rest and love, In the Sabbath home above!

Verse 3

Lord, Thy sinful child prepare For a place and portion there! Give my soul the spotless dress Of Thy perfect Righteousness: Then at length, a welcome guest, I shall enter to the feast, Earthly cares and sorrow o'er, Joys to last for evermore.
