[Verse 1] 

C          F     C F        Dm   G7 C

Here, O my Lord, I see Thee face to face; 

Am   B7       Em    A7  G      D7       G

here would we touch and handle things unseen; 

G                  G7  G     G7

here grasp with firmer hand eternal grace 

C          F    C     Am  G7   C

and all my weariness upon Thee lean. 

 

[Verse 2] 

C            F    C F      Dm    G7 C

Here would I feed upon the bread of God, 

Am   B7         Em   A7  G     D7      G

here drink with Thee the royal wine of heav'n; 

G             G7   G         G7

here would we lay aside each earthly load, 

C          F          C       Am  G7 C

here taste afresh the calm of sin forgiv'n. 

 

[Verse 3] 

C           F    C  F       Dm  G7 C

This is the hour of banquet and of song; 

Am   B7     Em    A7 G     D7         G

this is the heav'nly table spread for me; 

G                  G7  G         G7

here let me feast, and feasting, still prolong 

C                 F       C     Am   G7   C

the brief, bright hour of fellowship with Thee. 

 

[Verse 4] 

C           F     C   F       Dm G7 C

Too soon we rise, the symbols disappear;

Am  B7            Em  A7  G        D7       G

the feast, though not the love, is past and done; 

G            G7        G         G7

gone are the bread and wine, but Thou art here, 

C           F     C        Am     G7  C

nearer than ever, still my Shield and Sun. 

 

[Verse 5] 

C           F     C    F          Dm G7  C

Feast after feast thus comes, and passes by; 

Am  B7       Em     A7 G        D7     G

yet passing, points to the glad feast above; 

G            G7        G      G7

giving sweet foretaste of the festal joy, 

C                F      C        Am    G7  C

the Lamb's great bridal feast of bliss and love.
