1 We walk by faith, and not by sight;

No gracious words we hear

From Him who spoke as none e’er spoke;

But we believe Him near.

2 We may not touch His hands and side,

Nor follow where He trod;

But in His promise we rejoice,

And cry, “My Lord and God!”

3 Help then, O Lord, our unbelief;

And may our faith abound,

To call on you when you are near,

And seek where you are found.

4 That, when our life of faith is done;

In realms of clearer light,

We may behold you as you are,

With full and endless sight.
