Hymn 12 — Sing without ceasing, sing
| 12 | J. N. DARBY (1800-1882) | S.M. |
| 1 |
Sing without ceasing, sing The Saviour's present grace, How all things shine in light divine For those who've seen His face. | |
| 2 |
He's gone within the veil, For us that place has won; In Him we stand, a heav'nly band, Where He Himself is gone. | |
| 3 |
There all's unsullied light, Our hearts let in its rays; And heav'nly light makes all things bright, Seen in that blissful gaze. | |
| 4 |
Such here on earth we are, Though we in weakness roam; Our place on high, God's self so nigh, His presence is our home. | |
| 5 |
And stayed by joy divine, As hireling fills his day, Through scenes of strife and desert life We tread in peace our way. | |
| 6 |
That way is upward still, Where life and glory are; Our rest's above, in perfect love The glory we shall share. | |
| 7 |
For ever with the Lord, For ever like Him then, We'll see His face in that blest place, Our Father's house in heav'n. | |
