1. Sons of God, beloved in Jesus!
O the wondrous word of grace;
In His Son the Father sees us,
And as sons He gives us place.
Chorus:
Beloved, now are we the sons of God,
and it doth not yet appear what we shall be;
but we know, we know, we know that when He shall appear,
we know that when He shall appear,
we shall be like Him; we shall be like Him,
for we shall see Him as He is.
2. Blessed hope now brightly beaming,
On our God we soon shall gaze;
And in light celestial gleaming,
We shall see our Savior’s face.
3. By the power of grace transforming,
We shall then His image bear;
Christ His promised word performing,
We shall then His glory share.
