2196. We Walk by Faith
Text: Henry Alford, 1810-1871
Music: Attr. to Hugh Wilson, 1766-1824
Tune: MARTYRDOM, Meter: CM
1. We walk by faith, an not by sight: No gracious words we hear of 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; yet 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 in full and endless sight. 5. We walk by faith, an not by sight: No gracious words we hear of him who spoke as none e'er spoke, but we believe him near.
