My Saviour Face to Face
Author: W. C. Agar Appears in 25 hymnals Person Name: W. C. Agar First Line: I am glad I found the Saviour, for He makes my heart rejoice Refrain First Line: O I want to see my Saviour face to face Lyrics: 1 I am glad I found the Saviour, for He makes my heart rejoice,
And I feel within my soul His saving grace;
But I want to talk with Jesus, hear His loving, gentle voice,
I want to see my Saviour face to face.
O I want to see my Saviour face to face,
Who hath loved me and redeemed me by His grace;
In His kingdom, crowned with glory, on His everlasting throne,
I want to see my Saviour face to face.
2 Yes, I know He ever loves me, daily guide my erring feet,
And I’m resting in His tender, fond embrace;
But I want to know Him better, and my dear Redeemer meet,
I want to see my Saviour face to face.
O I want to see my Saviour face to face,
Who hath loved me and redeemed me by His grace;
In His kingdom, crowned with glory, on His everlasting throne,
I want to see my Saviour face to face.
3 When life’s sun is slowly setting, twilight shadows veil the sky,
And I’m near the ending of life’s weary race;
In my heart will be this longing, none but Christ can satisfy,
I want to see my Saviour face to face.
O I want to see my Saviour face to face,
Who hath loved me and redeemed me by His grace;
In His kingdom, crowned with glory, on His everlasting throne,
I want to see my Saviour face to face.
4 When I tread the crystal pavement of the new Jerusalem,
Where my Saviour has prepared for me a place;
Where the angel choirs are singing praise and glory to the lamb,
O then I’ll see my Saviour face to face.
O then I’ll see my Saviour face to face,
Who hath loved me and redeemed me by His grace;
In His kingdom, crowned with glory, on His everlasting throne,
I want to see my Saviour face to face. Used With Tune: [I am glad I found the Saviour, for He makes my heart rejoice]

Sarah Flower Adams
1805 - 1848 Person Name: Sarah F. Adams Hymnal Number: 214 Author of "Nearer, My God, to Thee" in The Old Story in Song Adams, Sarah, nee Flower. born at Harlow, Essex, Feb. 22nd, 1805; died in London, Aug. 14, 1848, and was buried at Harlow, Aug. 21,1848. She was the younger daughter of Mr. Benjamin Flower, editor and proprietor, of The Cambridge Intelligencer; and was married, in 1834, to William B. Adams, a civil engineer. In 1841 she published Vivia Perpetua, a dramatic poem dealing with the conflict of heathenism and Christianity, in which Vivia Perpetua suffered martyrdom; and in 1845, The Flock at the Fountain; a catechism and hymns for children. As a member of the congregation of the Rev. W. J. Fox, an Unitarian minister in London, she contributed 13 hymns to the Hymns and Anthems, published by C. Fox, Lond., in 1841, for use in his chapel. Of these hymns the most widely known are— "Nearer,my God,to Thee," and "He sendeth sun, He sendeth shower." The remaining eleven, most of which have come into common use, more especially in America, are:—
Creator Spirit! Thou the first. Holy Spirit.
Darkness shrouded Calvary. Good Friday.
Gently fall the dews of eve. Evening.
Go, and watch the Autumn leaves. Autumn.
O hallowed memories of the past. Memories.
O human heart! thou hast a song. Praise.
O I would sing a song of praise. Praise.
O Love! thou makest all things even. Love.
Part in Peace! is day before us? Close of Service.
Sing to the Lord! for His mercies are sure. Praise.
The mourners came at break of day. Easter.
Mrs. Adams also contributed to Novello's musical edition of Songs for the Months, n. d. Nearly all of the above hymns are found in the Unitarian collections of Great Britain, and America. In Martineau's Hymns of Praise & Prayer, 1873, No. 389, there is a rendering by her from Fenelon: —" Living or dying, Lord, I would be Thine." It appeared in the Hymns and Anthems, 1841.

This was adapted by Thomas A. Dorsey in 1938 for his hymn "Precious Lord, take my hand". hand." He composed anthems and wrote some additional music for Isaac Woodbury's Oratorio "Absalom." He compiled a small 3" x 4" hymnal that every student should keep in his pocket that went through several printings.
