405 Having seen the world's fair beauty, 1. Having seen the world's fair beauty, Lord, I would be blind once more, Lest I lose the loving Presence And Delight I knew before. Having seen the world's fair beauty, Lord, I would be blind once more, Lest I lose the loving Presence And Delight I knew before. 2. Dawn and sunset, star and moonlight, I can see in paradise, But while here on earth His mercy For my blindness will suffice. 3. I no more would be delivered >From my thorn, but look for grace, While within the veil His glory Shineth brightly on my face. 4. In the deep dark night, His beauty I by faith, not sight, may trace; He was ridiculed and hated, Yet I see His glorious face. 5. Sun and moonlight far surpassing, Clouds and Milky Way o'erspread, Is the glory all transcending Shining from His thorn-crowned head.
