The Australian Hymn Book
The Australian Hymn Book was published in 1977, and was the culmination of almost ten years' work by an ecumenical committee, chaired by A. Harold Wood, intent on producing a new, contemporary and inclusive hymn book that could be used in worship by the varied Christian congregations across Australia.
JESUS, THESE EYES HAVE NEVER SEEN
[1]
Jesus, these eyes have never seen
that radiant form of thine;
the veil of sense hangs dark between
thy blessed face and mine.
[2]
I see thee not, I hear thee not,
yet art thou oft with me;
and earth hath ne'er so dear a spot
as where I meet with thee.
[3]
Yet, though I have not seen, and still
must rest in faith alone,
I love thee, dearest Lord, and will,
unseen but not unknown.
[4]
When death these mortal eyes shall seal
and still the throbbing heart,
the rending veil shall thee reveal
all glorious as thou art.
