By Faith and Not By Sight

Author: Clara M. Brooks Meter: 9.9.9.6 with refrain Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:7 First Line: Following Jesus from day to day Refrain First Line: Walking with Jesus I’m in the light Lyrics: 1 Following Jesus from day to day, Gently He leads me along the way; E’er will I trust Him all foes despite, By faith and not by sight. Refrain: Walking with Jesus I’m in the light, Walking with Jesus in robes of white; Walking with Jesus my way is bright, By faith and not by sight. 2 Jesus has purchased me for His own, Sweetly He reigns in my heart, His throne, Pardon He granted, and washed me white, By faith and not by sight. [Refrain] 3 Seeking to enter the holiest place, Boldly I came to the throne of grace; Sanctified wholly, He’s my delight, By faith and not by sight. [Refrain] 4 When I was held in affliction’s chain, Suffering much from disease and pain; Jesus then touched me and healed me quite, By faith and not by sight. [Refrain] 5 Walking with Jesus till we shall meet, When in His likeness I stand complete, Where with the ransomed in heaven’s light, My faith is lost in sight.

Faith in the Joys of Heaven

Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:7 First Line: Faith leads to joys beyond the sky Lyrics: I. Faith leads to joys beyond the sky; Why then is this weak mind Afraid to raise a chearful eye To more than sense can find? II. Sense can but furnish scenes of woe, In this low vale of tears; No groves of heav'nly pleasure grow, No paradise appears. III. Ah! why should this mistaken mind Still rove with restless pain? Delight on earth expect to find, Yet still expect in vain? IV. Faith, rising upward, points her view To regions in the skies; There lovelier scenes than Eden knew, In bright perspective rise. V. Oh! If this heav'n-born grace were mine, Would not my spirit soar, Transported gaze on joys divine, And cleave to earth no more? VI. If in my heart true faith appears, How weak the sacred ray! Feebly aspiring, prest with fears, Almost it dies away. VII. O thou, from whose almighty breath It first began to rise, Purge off these mists, these dregs of earth, And bid it reach the skies. VIII. Let this weak, erring mind no more, On earth bewilder'd rove, But with celestial ardour soar To endless joys above.
