Hymn 53

If I but knew Thee as Thou art

  1. If I but knew Thee as Thou art,
    O loveliness unknown.
    With what desire, O Lord, my heart
    Would claim Thee for its own.
  2. Thy glory would my shame conceal,
    Thy purity my dross:
    I should rejoice with Thee to feel
    The sorrow of the cross.
  3. But I am dull and blind, O Lord,
    Unapt of Thee to learn;
    Thee I but dimly in Thy word,
    As in a glass, discern.
  4. With faith's warm hnger, through the veil,
    I seek to touch Thy hand:
    I feel the imprint of the nail
    And partly understand.
  5. But, ah, my lonely spirit tires
    Of knowing Thee in part.
    O Jesus, how my soul desires
    To see Thee as Thou art!
