2 Then shall we see the blessed One Who crowned was with Thorns, Who shed for us his precious Blood, Whose Heart was broke with scorns:
3 Him whom our Souls so dearly love, We all shall shortly see With open face, and shall above With him for ever be.
4 That Man that here met with disgrace, We there shall see so bright, That Angels can't behold his face For its exceeding light.
5 What gladness will possess our heart When we shall see these things! For light and life in every part Will rise like lasting Springs.
5 What gladness will possess our heart When we shall see these things! For light and life in ev'ry part Will rise like lasting Springs.
