Text: | We know, by faith we know |
Author: | Charles Wesley |
Tune: | SHAWMUT |
Arranger: | Lowell Mason |
1 We know, by faith we know,
If this vile house of clay,
This tabernacle, sink below,
In ruinous decay
2 We have a house above,
Not made with mortal hands;
And firm as our Redeemer's love
That heavenly fabric stands.
3 Full of immortal hope,
We urge the restless strife,
And hasten to be swallowed up
Of everlasting life.
4 Lord, let us put on thee
In perfect holiness,
And rise prepared thy face to see
Thy bright, unclouded face.
5 Thy grace with glory crown,
Who hast the earnest given;
And then triumphantly come down,
And take us up to heaven.
