When This Passing World Is Done Songtext
When this passing world is done
When has sunk yon glaring sun
When I stand with Christ on high
Looking o'er life's history
Then Lord shall I fully know
Not till then how much I owe

When I stand before the throne
Dressed in beauty not my own
When I see thee as thou are
Love thee with unsinning heart
Then Lord shall I fully know
Not till then how much I owe

When the praise of heaven I hear
Loud as thunders to the ear
Loud as many waters noise
Sweets as harps melodious voice
Then Lord shall I fully know
Not till then how much I owe

E'en on earth as through a glass
Darkly let thy glory pass
Make forgiveness feel so sweet
Make thy Spirit's help so meet
E'en on earth Lord make me know
Something of how much I owe
