[Verse 1]
Moses stood on a mountain
Waiting for You to pass by
You placed Your hand over his face
In Your presence, he wouldn't die
[Chorus]
And all Israel saw Your glory
And it shines down through the age
Now You've called us to boldly
Seek Your face
[Chorus]
Show me Your face, Lord
Show me Your face
And then gird up my loins
I might stand in this holy place
[Chorus]
Show me Your face, Lord
Show me Your face
Your power and Your grace
I will make it to the end
If I could just see Your face
[Verse 2]
David knew there was something more
Than the ark of Your presence
In a manger, Messiah was born
Amongst kings and some peasants
[Chorus]
And all Israel saw the glory
And it shines down through the age
Now You've called us to boldly
Seek Your face
[Chorus]
Show me Your face, Lord
Show me Your face
And then gird up my loins
I might stand in this holy place
[Chorus]
Show me Your face, Lord
Show me Your face
Your power and Your grace
I will make it to the end
If I could just see Your face
[Bridge]
If I could just see Your face
Show me Your face, Lord
Show me Your face
Show me Your face
And then gird up my loins
I might stand in this holy place
[Chorus]
Show me Your face, Lord
Show me Your face
Your power and Your grace
I will make it to the end
If I could just see Your face
[Outro]
If I could just see Your face
Show me Your face, Lord
Show me Your face
And then gird up my loins
I might stand in this holy place
[Chorus]
Show me Your face, Lord
Show me Your face
Your power and Your grace
I will make it to the end
If I could just see Your face
[Outro]
I will make it to the end
If I could just see Your face
I will make it to the end
Abba, show me Your face
