Looking unto Jesus,
|
|
| 1. | Looking unto Jesus, |
| | Never need we yield! |
| | Over all the armor, |
| | Faith the battle-shield! |
| | Standard of salvation, |
| | In our hearts unfurled, |
| | Let its elevation |
| | Overcome the world. |
| | Looking unto Jesus, |
| | Never need we yield! |
| | Over all the armor, |
| | Faith the battle-shield! |
| 2. | Look away to Jesus, |
| | Look away from all! |
| | Then we need not stumble, |
| | Then we shall not fall. |
| | >From each snare that lureth, |
| | Foe or phantom grim, |
| | Safety this ensureth, |
| | Look away to Him. |
| 3. | Looking into Jesus, |
| | Wond'ringly we trace |
| | Heights of power and glory, |
| | Depths of love and grace. |
| | Vistas far unfolding |
| | Ever stretch before, |
| | As we gaze, beholding, |
| | Ever more and more. |
| 4. | Looking up to Jesus |
| | On the emerald throne, |
| | Faith shall pierce the heavens, |
| | Where our King is gone. |
| | Lord, on Thee depending, |
| | Now, continually, |
| | Heart and mind ascending, |
| | Let us dwell with Thee. |
