Thy nature in my soul proclaim, Reveal thy love, thy glorious name ! 3 There in the place beside thy throne, Where all that find acceptance stand, Receive me up into thy Son ; Cover me with thy mighty hand ; Set me upon the Rock, and hide My soul in Jesu's wounded side. 4 O put me in the cleft ; empower My soul the glorious sight to bear ! Descend in this accepted hour ; Pass by me, and thy name declare ; Thy wrath withdraw, thy hand remove, And show thyself the God of Love. HYMN 284. 6-8's. HPO thee, great God of Love! I bow, A And prostrate in thy sight adore : By faith I see thee passing now ; I have, but still I ask for more ; A glimpse of love cannot suffice : My soul for all thy presence cries. The fulness of my vast reward A blest eternity shall be : But hast thou not on earth prepared Some better thing than this for me? What, -- but one drop ! --one transient sight ! I want a sun, -- a sea of light.

More favour'd than the saints of old, -- Who now by faith approach to thee, Shall all with open face behold In Christ the glorious Deity ; Shall see and put the Godhead on, The nature of thy sinless Son ' This, this is our high calling's prize !
