Lord Jesus Christ, we seek Thy face;
Within the veil we bow the knee;
Oh, let Thy glory fill the place,
And bless us while we wait on Thee.

Oh, let Thy glory fill the place,
And bless us while we wait on Thee.

We thank Thee for the precious blood
That purged our sins and brought us nigh;
All cleansed and sanctified to God,
Thy holy name to magnify.

All cleansed and sanctified to God,
Thy holy name to magnify.

Shut in with Thee far, far above
The restless world that wars below;
We seek to learn and prove Thy love,
Thy wisdom and Thy grace to know.

We seek to learn and prove Thy love,
Thy wisdom and Thy grace to know.

The brow that once with thorns was bound
Thy hands, Thy side, we fain would see;
Draw near, Lord Jesus, glory crowned,
And bless us while we wait on Thee.
Thy hands, Thy side, we fain would see;
Draw near, Lord Jesus, glory crowned,
And bless us while we wait on Thee.

I love this old hymn. We sang it often when I was growing up. But we used a different tune than either of the ones suggested. It came into my thoughts as I was sleeping and I woke with just a phrase. I haven't heard it in probably 30 years. I was so thankful to be able to find it. The words are so beautiful.
