| Hymn A & M 571- Give me the wings of faith to rise |
1. Give me the wings of faith to rise
within the veil, and see
the saints above, how great their joys,
how bright their glories be.
2. Once they were mourning here below,
their couch was wet with tears:
they wrestled hard, as we do now,
with sins, and doubts, and fears.
3. We ask them whence their victory came:
they, with united breath,
ascribe their conquest to the Lamb,
their triumph to his death.
4. They marked the footsteps that he trod,
his zeal inspired their breast;
and following their incarnate God,
the reached the promised rest.
5. Our glorious Leader claims our praise
for their own pattern given;
while the great cloud of witnesses
show the same path to heaven.
