Behold the Beauty

"One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after... to behold the beauty of the Lord" (Psalm 27:4). "My son, give Me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe My ways" (Proverbs 23:26). "See ye him whom the Lord hath chosen, that there is none like him among all the people?" (1 Samuel 11:24). "God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory" (1 John 3:16).

Behold the beauty of the Lord;
Now let your eyes upon Him rest.
In Christ are heaven's riches stored
With grace and truth by which we're blest.

There's none with Him who can compare;
Consider now His matchless worth!
Behold His beauty and declare
His excellence in all the earth!

Give to Him Your heart today;
Your heart can find no safer place!
Come to Him without delay;
Behold His beauty and His grace!

Come, behold the mystery
Of our Savior Jesus Christ:
He is the Lord of majesty,
Yet the Lamb once sacrificed!

Behold the beauty of our King;
Set your heart on things above!
Bring to Him the offering
Of your undistracted love.
