20356. WHEN THIS PASSING WORLD IS DONE
Lyrics & Stanzas
4 portions
Verse 1
When this passing world is done, When has sunk yon glaring sun, When I stand with Christ on high, Looking o'er life's history— Then, Lord, shall I fully know, Not 'til then how much I owe.
Verse 2
When I stand before the throne, Dressed in beauty not my own, When I see Thee as Thou art, Love Thee with unsinning heart— E'en on earth, Lord, make me know, Something of how much I owe.
Verse 3
When the praise of heav'n I hear, Loud as thunders to the ear, Loud as many waters' noise, Sweet as harp's melodious voice— Then, Lord, shall I fully know, Not till then, how much I owe.
Verse 4
E'en on earth, as thru a glass, Darkly let Thy glory pass; Make forgiveness feel so sweet, Make Thy Spirit's help so meet; E'en on earth, Lord, make me know Something of how much I owe.
