Redeemed Hymn – 53 If I but Knew Thee as Thou Art
“This things have I written unto you that ye may know-1 John. 5:13
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 finger, 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!
