One Glimpse of Jesus B y a B iola S tudent Just one glimpse o f Jesus Is enough for me; Oh, that look of passion O f His love so free! , Just to hear His pleading, Just to see His smile— This is all sufficient For this little while. Just one glimpse of Jesus And all clouds depart; All my foes are conquered, Peace reigns in my heart. Not a lonely feeling, Not a tear may dwell, Just one glimpse of Jesus, And everything is well.
