Verse 1: Having seen the world's fair beauty, Lord, I would be blind once more, Lest I lose the loving Presence And Delight I knew before. Verse 2: Dawn and sunset, star and moonlight, I can see in paradise, But while here on earth His mercy For my blindness will suffice. Verse 3: I no more would be delivered From my thorn, but look for grace, While within the veil His glory Shineth brightly on my face. Verse 4: In the deep dark night, His beauty I by faith, not sight, may trace; He was ridiculed and hated, Yet I see His glorious face. Verse 5: Sun and moonlight far surpassing, Clouds and Milky Way o'erspread, Is the glory all transcending Shining from His thorn-crowned head.
