MySongbooksThe 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.

[1]
Now let us see thy beauty, Lord,
as we have seen before,
and by thy beauty quicken us
to love thee and adore.
[2]
'Tis easy when with simple mind
thy loveliness we see
to consecrate ourselves afresh
to duty and to thee.
[3]
Our every feverish mood is cooled,
and gone is every load,
when we can lose the love of self
and find the love of God.
[4]
'Tis by thy loveliness we're won
to home and thee again,
and as we are thy children true
we are more truly men.
[5]
Lord, it is coming to ourselves
when thus we come to thee;
the vision of that loveliness
is perfect liberty.
[6]
So now we come to ask again
what thou hast often given,
the vision of that loveliness
which is the life of heaven.
