(we can't see our true selves)
(the picture's never really clear: foggy, distorted)
/but then face to face/
(as a man speaks to a friend)
/now i know in part/
(it's in some way a relief: not expected to know more)
/but then i shall know fully/
(sweet assurance: i have only sampled the feast)
(when it's hard to swallow: clumpy, dry, strange: it's only a foretaste)
/even as i have been fully known/
(i cannot see, yet i'm seen)
(my vision is weak but
we've been needing glasses since the dawn of time)
/i corinthians 13:12/
