Verse 1:
C majorC     FF   C majorC FF    DmDm  G7G7 C majorC
Here, O my Lord, I see Thee face to face;
A minorAm  B7B7    E minorEm  A7A7 G+G   D7D7    G+G
here would we touch and handle things unseen;
G+G         G7G7 G+G   G7G7
here grasp with firmer hand eternal grace
C majorC     FF  C majorC   A minorAm G7G7  C majorC
and all my weariness upon Thee lean.

Verse 2:
C majorC      FF  C majorC FF   DmDm  G7G7 C majorC
Here would I feed upon the bread of God,
A minorAm  B7B7     E minorEm  A7A7 G+G   D7D7   G+G
here drink with Thee the royal wine of heav'n;
G+G       G7G7  G+G     G7G7
here would we lay aside each earthly load,
C majorC     FF     C majorC    A minorAm G7G7 C majorC
here taste afresh the calm of sin forgiv'n.

Verse 3:
C majorC      FF  C majorC FF    DmDm G7G7 C majorC
This is the hour of banquet and of song;
A minorAm  B7B7   E minorEm  A7A7 G+G   D7D7     G+G
this is the heav'nly table spread for me;
G+G         G7G7 G+G     G7G7
here let me feast, and feasting, still prolong
C majorC         FF    C majorC   A minorAm  G7G7  C majorC
the brief, bright hour of fellowship with Thee.

Verse 4:
C majorC      FF   C majorC  FF    DmDm G7G7 C majorC
Too soon we rise, the symbols disappear;
A minorAm B7B7      E minorEm A7A7 G+G    D7D7    G+G
the feast, though not the love, is past and done;
G+G      G7G7    G+G     G7G7
gone are the bread and wine, but Thou art here,
C majorC      FF   C majorC    A minorAm   G7G7 C majorC
nearer than ever, still my Shield and Sun.

Verse 5:
C majorC      FF   C majorC  FF     DmDm G7G7 C majorC
Feast after feast thus comes, and passes by;
A minorAm B7B7    E minorEm   A7A7 G+G    D7D7   G+G
yet passing, points to the glad feast above;
G+G      G7G7    G+G   G7G7
giving sweet foretaste of the festal joy,
C majorC        FF   C majorC    A minorAm  G7G7 C majorC
the Lamb's great bridal feast of bliss and love.
