115. In Jesus' Face

1 The living God, who by His might
Spake but the word and there was light,
Hath promised now to show His grace
To sinful men, in Jesus’ face.

Refrain:
In Jesus’ face! in Jesus’ face!
O wondrous sight! O wondrous grace!
The living God through sin concealed,
In Jesus’ face is now revealed.

2 This mighty Christ, so strong and true,
Has come from God, His work to do;
He comes with power the soul to save,
To give the vict’ry o’er the grave. [Refrain]

3 In Jesus’ face our God we know,
And trust in Him to bear us through;
He will not leave us to defeat,
But make our victory complete. [Refrain]

4 When darkness gives the soul distress,
When sorrows on our pathway press,
One look at Him will clouds displace,
While comfort beams from Jesus’ face. [Refrain]

5 Then come, ye weary ones, and rest;
Come, sinful souls, and here be blessed;
Within your heart give Christ His place,
And see God’s love in Jesus’ face. [Refrain]
