July 5th Hymn by Bill Lynch

"Oh, Happy Day When We Shall Stand"
Text: Wilhelm A. Wexels, 1797-1866; tr. composite
Verse 1

Oh, happy day when we shall stand
amid the heav'nly throng;
and sing with hosts from ev'ry land
the new celestial song,
 the new celestial song.

"O Lord We Roll Our Eyes T'wards You"
Text: Bill Lynch

O Lord we roll our eyes t'wards you,
And see you face to face.
We sing with joy with all the saints
and praise you in this place
and praise you in this place.

This day we come to see you now,
is only through your grace.
Your love shines brightly from above,
and shines upon our face,
and shines upon our face.

We live your love in earthly life,
and seek to do your will.
We fail and sin and seek your grace,
and yet you bless us still,
and yet you bless us still.

Here now our praise in heaven above,
the Savior saved us still.
For we have seen your Kingdom here,
our life has been fulfilled,
our life has been fulfilled.
