About this Hymn
Soon the Bridegroom will come, and we shall be with him, and like him, and God shall wipe away all tears from our eyes. I burst through all the cobwebs of present things, and, his Spirit anointing my eyes, look at Jesus as one beside me. Soon we shall see him as he is; then our trials shall be done. Remember that Jesus for us is all our righteousness before a holy God, and Jesus in us is all our strength in an ungodly world. – Robert Murray M'Cheyne
Lyrics
Verse 1
When this passing world is done, when has sunk the glaring sun, when I stand with Christ above, looking on the wounds of love, then, Lord, shall I fully know, not till then, how much I owe. Then, Lord, shall I fully know, not till 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, then, Lord, shall I fully know, not till then, how much I owe. Then, Lord, shall I fully know, not till then, how much I owe.
Verse 3
Chosen not for good in me, wakened up from wrath to flee, hidden in the Savior's side, by the Spirit sanctified, teach me, Lord, on earth to show by my love how much I owe. Teach me, Lord, on earth to show by my love how much I owe.
