The Word

1A glory in the word we find When grace restores our sight;
But sin has darkened all the mind,
And vail'd the heav'nly light,
And vail'd the heav'nly light.

2When God's own Spirit clears our view,
How bright the doctrines shine!
Their holy fruits and sweetness show The author is divine,
The author is divine.

3How blest are we, with open face To view Thy glory,
Lord,
And all Thy image here to trace,
Reflected in Thy word!
Reflected in Thy word!

4O teach us, as we look, to grow In holiness and love,
That we may long to see and know Thy glorious face above,
Thy glorious face above.
