Eye hath not seen Thy Glory

Author: E. W. Eddis Hymnal: Hymns of Consecration and Faith #270 (1902) First Line: Eye hath not seen Thy glory: Thou alone Lyrics: 1 Eye hath not seen Thy glory: Thou alone The path of light hast trod; And in Thy kingdom, on the Father’s throne Thou reignest, Son of God. 2 Yet Thou abidest with us, King of kings: Thy loveliness we see; And through the hallowed veil of earthly things Hold communing with Thee. 3 Thou livest in us: from the tomb of earth To heaven with Thee we rise, And, through the portal of our second birth, Behold the eternal prize. 4 The door in heaven is opened: Jesus, Lord, The Crown is on Thy brow; Amid the immortal hosts of light adored In glory dwellest Thou.

Edward W. Eddis

1825 - 1905 Person Name: E. W. Eddis Author of "Eye hath not seen Thy Glory" in Hymns of Consecration and Faith Eddis, Edward William, a member of the Catholic Apostolic Church, commonly known as the "Irvingites," compiled for the use of their congregations, and published in 1864, Hymns for the Use of the Churches (London, Bosworth & Harrison). It contained 205 hymns, of which nineteen were his original compositions, and two translations. The 2nd edition, in a revised form with 320 hymns and 44 doxologies, was published in 1871 (London, J. Strangeways). To this he contributed forty new hymns and one translation, thus making 62 hymns. All these are signed "E. W. Eddis." Very few are found in any other collection. The exceptions include "O brightness of the Immortal Father's Face " (translation from the Greek); "In us the hope of glory" (The Second Advent desired); and "Thou standest at the altar" (Holy Communion). There are other hymns in this collection signed “E.," "C. E.," and "E. E.," which seem to indicate members of his family, but about which we can gain no definite information. The last, "E. E.," is probably his wife, as her name was "Ellen Eddis." -- John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907) ============================================================= Eddis, E. Wilton (not William), p. 321, i., b. in 1825. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, New Supplement (1907) ============================== Edward William Eddis was born at Islington, London, and became a minister of the Catholic Apostolic church, commonly known as the "Irvingites," for which he compiled Hymns for the Use of the Church, 1854. To this collection he contributed 19 original hymns and two translations, and to a second edition, in 1871, he added 40 more hymns and one new translation. He died in Toronto, Canada. --The Hymnal 1940 Companion.
