Father, I patiently wait for the hour
When I might be claiming the greatness of thee
Bounteously giving strengthening power
Thy countenance shining so radiantly
Just to behold Him in that holy moment
Oh dearest Jesus, part of me be
Caring, sharing, let death not imprison
Jesus, my Lord, I surrender to thee
Moments enchantingly sweet I've been missing
That only your presence can bring to me here
Fill if you will 'til this cup runneth over
This heart's overflowing for one that's so dear
Not to be hoping to be, but believing
Now soon to be hearing, how sweet to my ear
Whisper the promise of never more leaving
Of living forever with thee ever near
