WITHIN THE VEIL
1. "Within the
Veil:" Be this, belov'd, thy portion,
Within the secret
of Thy Lord to dwell;
Beholding Him,
until thy face His glory,
Thy life His love,
thy lips His praise shall tell.
2. "Within the
Veil," for only as thou gazest
Upon the matchless
beauty of His face,
Canst thou become a
living revelation
Of His great heart
of love, His untold grace.
3. "Within the
Veil," His fragrance poured upon thee,
Without the Veil,
that fragrance shed abroad:
"Within the
Veil," His hand shall tune the music
Which sounds on
earth the praises of thy Lord.
4. "Within the
Veil," thy spirit deeply anchored,
Thou walkest calm
above a world of strife:
"Within the
Veil" thy soul with Him united,
Shall live on earth
His resurrection life.
