My Saviour Face to Face

Author: W. C. Agar Hymnal: The Old Story in Song #84 (1906) First Line: I am glad I found the Saviour, for He makes my heart rejoice Refrain First Line: O I want to see my Saviour face to face Lyrics: 1 I am glad I found the Saviour, for He makes my heart rejoice, And I feel within my soul His saving grace; But I want to talk with Jesus, hear His loving, gentle voice, I want to see my Saviour face to face. O I want to see my Saviour face to face, Who hath loved me and redeemed me by His grace; In His kingdom, crowned with glory, on His everlasting throne, I want to see my Saviour face to face. 2 Yes, I know He ever loves me, daily guide my erring feet, And I’m resting in His tender, fond embrace; But I want to know Him better, and my dear Redeemer meet, I want to see my Saviour face to face. O I want to see my Saviour face to face, Who hath loved me and redeemed me by His grace; In His kingdom, crowned with glory, on His everlasting throne, I want to see my Saviour face to face. 3 When life’s sun is slowly setting, twilight shadows veil the sky, And I’m near the ending of life’s weary race; In my heart will be this longing, none but Christ can satisfy, I want to see my Saviour face to face. O I want to see my Saviour face to face, Who hath loved me and redeemed me by His grace; In His kingdom, crowned with glory, on His everlasting throne, I want to see my Saviour face to face. 4 When I tread the crystal pavement of the new Jerusalem, Where my Saviour has prepared for me a place; Where the angel choirs are singing praise and glory to the lamb, O then I’ll see my Saviour face to face. O then I’ll see my Saviour face to face, Who hath loved me and redeemed me by His grace; In His kingdom, crowned with glory, on His everlasting throne, I want to see my Saviour face to face.

Author of "My Saviour Face to Face" in Glorious Praise

William J. Kirkpatrick

1838 - 1921 Person Name: Wm. J. Kirkpatrick Composer of "[I am glad I found the Saviour]" in Glorious Praise William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia. Bert Polman
