Text: | I Shall Be Like Him |
Author: | J. B. Mackay |
Tune: | [In this vale of mists and shadows] |
Composer: | Jno. R. Sweney |
1 In this vale of mists and shadows,
All the way at best is dim;
But I know, when safe with Jesus,
Thro’ his grace I’ll be like him.
Chorus:
I shall be like him,
I shall be like him,
Praise to his name for such wonderful grace!
I shall be like my blessed Redeemer,
When I behold him face to face.
2 Tho’ I now behold him dimly,
Praise his name! I know I’m his;
And I’ll shout his praise in glory,
When I see him as he is. [Chorus]
3 What I’ll be in that bright kingdom,
Doth not yet to me appear;
But his word says I shall be like him,
If I fully trust him here. [Chorus]
4 Then I’ll walk by faith with Jesus,
Trusting his redeeming grace,
Till beyond the mists and shadows
I behold him face to face. [Chorus]
