225. Would Ye Know My Glory True?

1. Would ye know my glory true?
Would ye learn my wisdom, too?
Would ye see who is mine own?
Hear whose praises I make known?
Jesus Christ, the Crucified,
Jesus Christ, the Crucified.

2. Who is faith's foundation strong?
Who unseals my lips to song?
Who bore here my sinful load?
Who wrought peace for me with God?
Jesus Christ, the Crucified,
Jesus Christ, the Crucified.

3. Who is faith's true strength in strife?
Who is now life of my life?
Who hath made me just and free,
So that I God's child might be?
Jesus Christ, the Crucified,
Jesus Christ, the Crucified.

4. Who gives comfort in life's woe?
Who protects against the foe?
Who revives my fainting heart?
Who binds up the wounds that smart?
Jesus Christ, the Crucified,
Jesus Christ, the Crucified.

5. Who will death of my death be;
Help in my last agony?
Who lets me His kingdom share?
Makes me like the angels there?
Jesus Christ, the Crucified,
Jesus Christ, the Crucified.

6. Who will open up the grave
By His Word, so strong to save?
Who to life will waken me,
Evermore with Him to be?
Jesus Christ, the risen Lord,
Jesus Christ, the risen Lord.

7. Who gives life and victory
By His mighty power to me?
Who has for my sins atoned?
Who has me with mercy crowned?
Jesus, the Exalted One,
Jesus, the Exalted One.

8. Who directs me from above?
Who is object of my love?
Who rests not till perfect be
All that He hath planned for me?
Jesus Christ, the Living One,
Jesus Christ, the Living One.

9. Now ye know my wisdom clear
And in whom I glory here.
I am His! Who is mine own?
Who gives me of life the crown?
Jesus Christ, the Glorified!
Jesus Christ, the Glorified!

10. Joyfully my way I go;
Unto whom I live, I know. -
When death ends this life for me,
Then my spirit goes to Thee,
Jesus, God, the Glorified!
Jesus, God, the Glorified!
