124. Whom Having Not Seen I Love

A friend have I who’s ever near, who comforts me and stills each fear, It is my Lord and Savior dear, whom, having not seen, I love.

He’s gone (He’s gone) to prepare a place (to prepare a place) for me in his home above (in his home above); And I shall behold his face (And I shall behold his face), whom, having not seen, I love.

In vain may fancy strive to trace my Savior’s beauty and his grace; More fair than I can dream, his face, whom, having not seen, I love.

He’s gone (He’s gone) to prepare a place (to prepare a place) for me in his home above (in his home above); And I shall behold his face (And I shall behold his face), whom, having not seen, I love.

The precious hope of that bright day illumines all mine earthly way; He’ll take me home with him to stay, whom, having not seen, I love.

He’s gone (He’s gone) to prepare a place (to prepare a place) for me in his home above (in his home above); And I shall behold his face (And I shall behold his face), whom, having not seen, I love.

4.

With that glad meeting e’er in view, my pilgrim journey I pursue, And try his holy will to do, whom, having not seen, I love.

He’s gone (He’s gone) to prepare a place (to prepare a place) for me in his home above (in his home above); And I shall behold his face (And I shall behold his face), whom, having not seen, I love.
