1. “We would see Jesus!”
Blest be the name
That to the nations
Beareth such fame.
“We would see Jesus!”
Idols of old,
Fallen and broken,
Wonders have told.
Refrain:
Seeking for Jesus!
Him would I see;
Joy now, for Jesus
Seeketh for me!
2. “We would see Jesus!”
Blest are the men
Come from the nations
Seeking again.
“We would see Jesus!”
Friend of the least,
Jesus is present
Now at the feast.
3. “We would see Jesus!”
Blest be the day
When all the nations
Truly shall say.
“We would see Jesus!”
Glorious ’twill be,
When as their Savior
Him they shall see.
