Oh, I Want to See Him

Author: R. H. C. Meter: 12.12.12.11.11.11.11.11 Appears in 76 hymnals Scripture: 1 John 3:2 First Line: As I journey through the land, singing as I go Refrain First Line: Oh, I want to see Him, look upon His face Lyrics: 1 As I journey through the land, singing as I go, Pointing souls to Calvary—to the crimson flow, Many arrows pierce my soul from without, within; But my Lord leads me on, through Him I must win. Refrain: Oh, I want to see Him, look upon His face, There to sing forever of His saving grace; On the streets of glory let me lift my voice, Cares all past, home at last, ever to rejoice. 2 When in service for my Lord dark may be the night, But I’ll cling more close to Him, He will give me light; Satan’s snares may vex my soul, turn my thoughts aside; But my Lord goes ahead, leads whate’er betide. [Refrain] 3 When in valleys low I look toward the mountain height, And behold my Savior there, leading in the fight, With a tender hand outstretched toward the valley low, Guiding me, I can see, as I onward go. [Refrain] 4 When before me billows rise from the mighty deep, Then my Lord directs my bark; He doth safely keep, And He leads me gently on through this world below; He’s a real Friend to me, oh, I love Him so.

The Love of God

Author: Frederick M. Lehman; Meir ben Isaac Nehoral Appears in 76 hymnals Scripture: 1 John 3:1 First Line: The love of God is greater by far Refrain First Line: Oh love of god, how rich and pure! Lyrics: 1 The love of God is greater far Than tongue or pen can ever tell; It goes beyond the highest star, And reaches to the lowest hell; The guilty pair, bowed down with care, God gave His Son to win; His erring child He reconciled, And pardoned from his sin. Chorus: Oh love of God, how rich and pure! How measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure, The saints’ and angels’ song. 2 When hoary time shall pass away, And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall; When men who here refuse to pray, On rocks and hills and mountains call; God’s love, so sure, shall still endure, All measureless and strong; Redeeming grace to Adam’s race— The saints’ and angels’ song. (Chorus) 3 Could we with ink the ocean fill, And were the skies of parchment made, Were every stalk on earth a quill And every man a scribe by trade; To write the love of God above Would drain the ocean dry; Nor could the scroll contain the whole, Tho' stretched from sky to sky. (Chorus) Topics: God Love and Mercy; God Love and Mercy Used With Tune: [The love of God is greater by far]
