Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus


flowing waters

 

O soul, are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see?
There's light for a look at the Savior,
And life more abundant and free!

Through death into life everlasting
He passed, and we follow Him there;
Over us sin no more hath dominion
For more than conquerors we are!

His word shall not fail you--He promised;
Believe Him, and all will be well:
Then go to a world that is dying,
His perfect salvation to tell!

Refrain:

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace

               I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say

 

              I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Come unto Me and rest;
              Lay down, thou weary one, lay down Thy head upon My breast."
              I came to Jesus as I was, weary and worn and sad;
              I found in Him a resting place, and He has made me glad.

              I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Behold, I freely give
              The living water; thirsty one, stoop down, and drink, and live."
              I came to Jesus, and I drank of that life giving stream;
              My thirst was quenched, my soul revived, and now I live in Him.

              I heard the voice of Jesus say, "I am this dark world’s Light;
              Look unto Me, thy morn shall rise, and all thy day be bright."
              I looked to Jesus, and I found in Him my Star, my Sun;
              And in that light of life I’ll walk, till traveling days are done.
