]]> Moses stood on a mountain
Waiting for You to pass by
You put Your hand over his face
So in Your Presence, he wouldn’t die

And all of Israel saw the glory
And it shines down through the age
Now You’ve called me
To boldly seek Your Face

Show me Your face, Lord
Show me Your face
And then gird up my legs
That I might stand in this holy place

Show me Your face, Lord
Your power and Your grace
Your power and grace
I would make it to the end
If I can just see Your face

David knew there was something more
Than the ark of Your presence
In a manger Messiah was born
Among kings and peasants

And all of Israel saw the glory
And it shines down through the age
Now You’ve called us
To boldly seek Your face

Show me Your face, Lord
Show me Your face
And then gird up my legs
That I might stand in this holy place

Show me Your face, Lord
Your power and Your grace
Your power and grace
I will make it to the end
If I can just see Your face

I know I will make it to the end
If I can just see Your face
