Horatius Bonar

Our Life Is Hid With Christ

Our life is hid with Christ,
With Christ in God above;
Upward our heart would go to Him,
Whom, seeing not, we love.
 
He liveth, and we live;
His life for us prevails;
His fulness fills our emptiness,
His strength for us avails.
 
Life worketh in us now,
And shall for evermore;
Death shall be swallowed up of life,
The grave its trust restore.
 
When He who is our life
In glory shall appear,
We too shall be revealed with Him,
And His bright raiment wear.
 
Shine as the sun shall we
When He shall come again;
Our sky without a cloud or mist,
Ourselves without a stain.
 
Like Him we then shall be
Transformed and glorified;
For we shall see Him as He is,
And in His light abide.
