Lyrics:
VERSE 1
How wondrous is Your presence Lord
Too awesome to behold
The seraphim must turn away
The angels are not bold
For who can bear the brightness of
Your holy dwelling place
Yet by the blood that Jesus shed
I dare to lift my gaze
CHORUS
Your holiness is beautiful oh Lord
Your holiness is beautiful
My glorious Lord
I see You now by faith
But soon Lord face to face
Your holiness is beautiful my Lord
VERSE 2
I long to see Your splendor Lord
You’ve burned it in my heart
My hunger won’t be satisfied
To worship from afar
Oh cause Your face to shine on me
And take the veil away
And then my joy will be complete
I’ll sing eternal praise
