A Glimpse of You

Daybreak, Sunscape
Beauty unbearable
Gives to us a parable
Of being, seeing
That which is unspeakable
Never quite repeatable

And somehow in some way
We know well we have been touched
Left trembling, it's humbling
The moment we have beheld
The holy Face of Love
Come to visit us
How often You come

Reaching, speaking
Through every circumstance
Twist of fate at every chance
Lovely, ugly
A King, a Fool, a Stranger
And once a Baby in a manger

And somehow in some way
We know well we have been touched
Left trembling, it's humbling
The moment we have beheld
The holy Face of Love
Come to visit us
The precious times we catch
A glimpse of You

Oh, Jesus
Forgive us when we are blind
And free us
To see You more of the time
Every wonder and sign
And in return, we promise
To watch for You
To wait for You, Lord

And somehow in some way
We know well we have been touched
The moment we have beheld
The holy Face of Love
Come to visit us
If only we catch a glimpse of You
