How much longer must I wait
To see You, Jesus? Oh!

1.
You came into this world of great suffering
And were lifted up on the cross for me.
Oh, when will I finally see
That treasure of love, my Beloved?

2.
In the eyes that wept for me,
I long to see that radiant light of love
Shining in heaven.
Oh, when will I go there
And see You face to face?

3.
When will I enter that home
Where those who believe will receive their reward,
Where every trouble and sorrow
Will finally come to an end?

4.
When will I see my loved ones
Who have gone before me,
Rejoice with them in heaven,
And sing a new song together?

5.
Today I see You with the eyes of my heart,
But when will I finally see Your face
Forever and ever—
Face to face?
