Face To Face
Soundforth Singers and Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gee, what a thrill each time I kiss her
Believe me I've got a case
On Nancy with the laughin' face
She takes the winter and makes it summer
Summer could take some lessons from her
Picture a tomboy in lace
That's Nancy with the laughin' face
Well, she'll give you the very same glow
When she speaks you would think it was singin'
Just hear her say "hello"
I swear to goodness you can't resist her
Sorry for you, she has no sister
No angel could replace
Nancy with the laughin' face
Keep Betty Grable, Lamour, and Turner
She makes my heart a charcoal burner
No angel could replace
My Nancy with the laughin' face
The lyrics of Soundforth Singers and Orchestra's song "Face To Face" describes the singer's infatuation with a girl named Nancy with a contagious, infectious laugh. He feels incomplete without seeing her every day and cherishes each moment he spends with her, especially when he gets to kiss her. The song beautifully highlights the qualities that make Nancy so special; she has the ability to make winter feel like summer, she is like a tomboy in lace, and her voice sounds like the ringing of mission bells. The singer thinks that no other woman can replace Nancy's place in his heart and even goes as far as to say that he'd rather have her than iconic beauties like Betty Grable, Lamour, and Turner.

From weariness of sin I turn at last, O Lord, to Thee
My eyes and heart grown dim from looking long on vanity.
I venture toward thy radiance then, compelled to come by grace
And in the pages of Thy word behold Thy lovely face.
(Chorus)
Face of glory, turned upon me
I cannot but Thee adore.
To behold Thee, O my Saviour,
Is to love Thee more and more.
Each grace in all its fullness on Thy countenance I see.
Great tenderness of mercy, blazing light of purity.
Thine eyes are wells and love and wisdom, settled peace Thy brow,
Before the whole of perfect beauty I in worship bow.
When someday I before Thee stand, a debtor to Thy grace,
And gaze with heaven’s eyes upon the brightness of Thy face,
Transformed into Thy likeness, all my sin thrust far away,
With millions of redeemed ones I will lift my voice and say:
Face of glory turned upon me
I cannot but Thee adore.
To behold Thee, O my Savior,
Is to love Thee more and more.
To behold Thee, O my Savior,
Is to love Thee more and more.
