R. M. McCheyne (138/413) -- Hymns and Spiritual Songs

R. M. McCheyne WHEN this passing world is done, When has sunk yon glorious sun, When we stand with Christ on high, Looking o’er life’s history; Then, Lord, shall I fully know Not till then how much I owe. 2 When I stand before the throne Dressed in beauty not my own, When I see Thee as Thou art, Love Thee with unsinning heart; Then, Lord, shall I fully know Not till then how much I owe. 3 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. 4 Chosen not for good in me, Wakened up from wrath to flee; Hidden in the Saviour’s side, By the Spirit sanctified; Teach me, Lord, on earth to show, By my love, how much I owe.
