1. When this passing world is done,
  When has sunk yon glaring sun,
  When we stand with Christ on high,
  Looking o'er life's history;
  Then, Lord, shall I fully know,
  Not till then, how much I owe.
2. When I stand before the throne
  Dressed in beauty not my own,
  When I see Thee as Thou art,
  Love Thee with unsinning heart;
  Then, Lord, shall I fully know,
  Not till then, how much I owe.
3. E'en on earth, as through a glass
  Darkly, let Thy glory pass;
  Make forgiveness feel so sweet;
  Make Thy Spirit's help so meet:
  E'en on earth, Lord, make me know
  Something of how much I owe.
