WITH glorious clouds encompassed round, Whom angels dimly see, May God, th’Unsearchable, be found? Will He appear to me? |
|||
2 | Would He forsake His throne above, Himself to us impart? Come, teach us from Thy Word of love, And move in every heart! |
||
3 | In manifested love explain Thy wonderful design, That brought the suffering Son of Man, To shed His blood divine. |
||
4 | Didst Thou not in our flesh appear, And live and die below, That we may now perceive Thee near, And our Redeemer know? |
||
5 | Come now, and to our souls reveal That dear disfigured face, The wounds which all my sorrows heal, The heights and depths of grace. |
||
6 | O Saviour, in Thy person show, Our Sovereign crucified! And then the pardoning God we’ll know, And feel Thy blood applied. |

Charles Wesley, 1707-88 |
