Title:     Hymn 1:108 [Not With Our Mortal Eyes]
Author: Isaac Watts [More Titles by Watts]

Christ unseen and beloved, 1 Pet. 1. 8.

Not with our mortal eyes
Have we beheld the Lord,
Yet we rejoice to hear his Name,
And love him in his word.

2 On earth we want the sight
Of our Redeemer's face,
Yet, Lord, our inmost thoughts delight
To dwell upon thy grace.

3 And when we taste thy love,
Our joys divinely grow
Unspeakable, like those above,
And heaven begins below.

[The end]
Isaac Watts's poem: Hymn 1:108 [Not With Our Mortal Eyes]
